Abstract. Web mashups are a new generation of applications based on the composition of ready-to-use, heterogeneous components. They are gaining momentum thanks to their lightweight composition approach, which represents a new opportunity for companies to leverage on past investments in SOA, Web services, and public APIs. Although several studies are emerging in order to address mashup development, no systematic mapping studies have been reported on how quality issues are being addressed. This paper reports a systematic mapping study on which and how the quality of Web mashups has been addressed and how the product quality-aware approaches have been defined and validated. The aim of this study is to provide a background in which to appropriately develop future research activities. A total of 38 research papers have been included from an initial set of 187 papers. Our results provided some findings regarding how the most relevant product quality characteristics have been addressed in different artifacts and stages of the development process. They have also been useful to detect some research gaps, such as the need of more controlled experiments and more quality-aware mashup development proposals for other characteristics which being important for the Web domain have been neglected such as Usability and Reliability.

In this study, the techniques of migrating legacy software systems into web service-based architecture has been discussed. This procedure is carried out based on the fact that software and business companies want to migrate along with previous systems, to a more recent technology, which are of higher benefit to both businesses and their client. With the above issue in mind, this study executed a systematic literature review to look into the various techniques that were existing in published literatures or articles and come up with a comprehensive summary that highlighted their strength and weaknesses for future improvement.

“…With reference to existing regression testing studies [11], [16], [22], [23], [24], [28], [29], [31], [32], [34], we also include random ordering (referred to as Random in this paper, and as Rand in Figs. 6, 7, and 8) for comparison in the experiment to be presented in the next section.…”

An external web service may evolve without prior notification. In the course of the regression testing of a workflowbased web service, existing test case prioritization techniques may only verify the latest service composition using the not-yetexecuted test cases, overlooking high-priority test cases that have already been applied to the service composition before the evolution. In this paper, we propose Preemptive Regression Testing (PRT), an adaptive testing approach to addressing this challenge. Whenever a change in the coverage of any service artifact is detected, PRT recursively preempts the current session of regression test and creates a sub-session of the current test session to assure such lately identified changes in coverage by adjusting the execution priority of the test cases in the test suite. Then, the sub-session will resume the execution from the suspended position. PRT terminates only when each test case in the test suite has been executed at least once without any preemption activated in between any test case executions. The experimental result confirms that testing workflow-based web service in the face of such changes is very challenging; and one of the PRT-enriched techniques shows its potential to overcome the challenge.
