The life cycle of an application can be shortened by initiating the creation of a mock-up test script before the development of an application is complete. The concurrent creation of the mock-up test script and the application can reduce a time associated with the life cycle of an application. Mock-up test script creation is based on the user interface (UI) specification and a mock-up graphical user interface (GUI) without business logic. Test script creation can include associating a functional specification and a UI specification with a proposed application and creating a mock-up GUI for testing based on the UI specification. Test script creation can include developing an application based on the proposed application that includes a logic based on the functional specification and a GUI based on the UI specification and creating a mock-up test script based on the mock-up GUI and not based on the logic, the functional specification, and the GUI.

Test script creation based on abstract test user controls

In one example, a method for testing a multi-threaded application includes running an initial test of the multi-threaded application and collecting thread generation data and determining the thread hierarchy. The thread execution is then modified to produce a modified configuration and a second test is run with the modified configuration. A device for testing of multi-threaded applications is also provided.

Testing multi-threaded applications

Methods and apparatus are disclosed to generate software test script from video. Example methods disclosed herein include determining a user action in a frame of a video comprising recorded testing of software. The example method also includes identifying an action parameter corresponding to the user action. The example method also includes based on the action parameter, generating without user intervention a script to execute on the software.

Generating software test script from video

A test code is generated based on a test rule relating to testing of executable code. The test code is executed to perform a test of the executable code, where executing the test code causes performance of actions including operation of user-activatable control elements of the executable code. In response to detecting an abnormal behavior of the executable code during the test, instructions of the test code relating to the actions are saved to allow a replay of the test to identify a cause of the abnormal behavior.
