摘要
The Web services technology has received significant momentum in recent years, because it allows people to easily utilize and integrate existing software applications to rapidly create new business services. However, how to ensure the trustworthiness of a Web services-oriented system remains a big challenge. One critical issue is how to test a Web service in an effective and efficient manner. In this paper, we report our design and development of a novel mobile agent-based method oriented to Web services testing. We seamlessly integrate an existing testing tool (HP LoadRunner) with a mobile agent technology (IBM Aglet) to build a practical environment for testing Web services. We also report an automatic test case generation algorithm, which analyzes published Web service interfaces and creates boundary value-based, fault injection-equipped test cases.
