| Abstract | Creating effective test cases is a difficult problem, especi ally for web applications. To comprehensively test a web applicatio n’s functionality, test cases must test complex application st ate dependencies and concurrent user interactions. Rather than crea ting test cases manually or from a static model, field data provides an i nexpensive alternative to creating such sophisticated test cases. An existing approach to using field data in testing web applicat ions is user-session-based testing. However, previous user-sess ion-based testing approaches ignore state dependences from multi-us er interactions. In this paper, we propose strategies for leveragin g web application field data to automatically create test cases th at test various levels of multi-user interaction and state dependenci es. Results from our preliminary case study of a publicly deployed web ap plication show that these test case creation mechanisms are a pr omising testing strategy for web applications. |
