“…Nowadays, keyword-based test automation tools are being used to overcome the aforesaid issues of test automation tools. Though keyword-driven testing tools require substantial efforts in terms of time and expertise to develop keyword libraries, but keyword-driven testing is application independent, easy to maintain and scalable [24]. To facilitate test engineers in test cases execution and to reduce test maintenance efforts, our testing automation framework supports two test execution methods: execution of functionally decompose test scripts and keyword-based test case execution.…”

Context-aware applications are emerging applications in the modern era of computing. These applications can determine and adapt to situational context to provide better user experience. Testing these applications is not straightforward. Constantly changing nature of context makes testing context-aware application is a challenging task. To uncover a defect in context-aware application, a test engineer needs activity (sequence of actions) and context information (context data); this makes test case development a difficult task. Conventional test case development methodologies do not cater for context information. Besides, conventional applications have only one input source, but context-aware application must obtain data from many sources to infer the context. Yet another issue that these applications often face is the noisy data problem as input data collected from physical sensors could be noisy. Test adequacy criteria are used as test stoppage rule and define the quality of testing as well as for generating test suites. Test adequacy criteria is helpful to control the cost of testing as well as determining/establishing confidence in the software product quality. A number of test adequacy criteria exist for testing conventional applications, but the same is not true for context-aware applications. Defining test adequacy criteria and test coverage measures for context-aware applications warrants further research. Several techniques have been developed by researchers to generate and execute test cases for context-aware applications; however, end-to-end testing and result analysis of executed test cases still remains a grueling task for the test engineers. The aim of this study is to automate end-to-end functional testing, analysis of the generated test results as well as functional/requirement coverage assessment. Moreover, we also present a confidence assessment template for result analysis. Test engineers can use our proposed framework to assess the requirement coverage. Our proposed framework will reduce testing time, efforts and cost thus enabling test engineers to execute more testing cycles to attain higher degree of test coverage.

Modern software applications are getting more complex in order to provide better service and quality. This complexity has given birth too many challenges for software testing such as functional discontinuation and detection of system level defects. Existing testing techniques which are based on test cases are time consuming and unable to offer higher confidence on quality of products for these complex applications. Distributed testing frameworks could be used to test complex software but these frameworks do not provide a global picture of testing activities and application status. This poor visibility results in poor control over testing activities. In this study we have proposed a distributed testing model (DisTest) using scenario-based testing technique. DisTest could be used with any COTS test automation tool and could be employed at any testing level. Result shows DisTest provides better visibility and control on testing activities and view of application status.

“…But if there are changes to the website that is being tested, it will take a long time to change back the tests that have been done previously, in contrast to testing using Keyword Driven Testing. In Keyword-Driven Testing, all the keywords used for testing a ISSN 2085-4552 website can be easily added, removed and modified so that if there are changes to the website, the test does not need to be done from scratch [8]. By using Keyword-Driven Testing, the tests created can be easier to maintain and allow for easy understanding so that all team members can work together to carry out the test [9].…”

“…In addition, similar research explains that Keyword Driven Testing saves a lot of manual testing by automating the website testing process for various test cases and also every keyword that has been used can be reused to test different websites [8]. In research on the evolution of Keyword Driven Testing shows that Keyword Driven Testing has a complex design with several levels of abstraction and a design that supports reuse, more than 60% of keywords used have the potential to reduce changes required during evolution by up to 70% [9].…”

Abstract— Testing a software is an important stage of a series of software development. Functional testing of each feature on the Angkasa website is intended to try out the function to match the required specifications. To achieve a functional test result, there are elements of features on the web page that require keywords. These keywords are used to perform actions or actions in running a web page, these keywords will help in making Test Cases for the testing process. Because it takes the right keywords to test on the web. To overcome this problem, this study analyzes the use of the Keyword Driven Testing approach for making Test Cases through the Katalon Studio tools. Keyword Driven Testing is one of the concepts in ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119, namely Keyword Driven Testing in The Test Design Process. The results of the analysis show that making Test Cases with Keyword Driven testing is easier to understand and is fully supported by the Katalon Studio tools. However, when creating test cases, not all keywords can be added automatically, so they need to be added manually.
