A new test control structure improves on constructing complex test sequences in a scripting language. The new test control structure iterates over two or more arbitrary values of a test attribute, such as a networking protocol parameter applied at OSI layers 2-7.

System and method of test iteration via property chaining

Networks and applications can have many different profiles. Template configurations can consist of a wide variety of technologies such as IPv4, DHCP, and BGP. A list of application profiles would include web services, VoIP, Email, and Point-to-point. Network and application profiles can be combined into topology templates. Test methodologies can include complex sets of instructions that allow for testing any number of topology templates in a number of ways. The technology disclosed allows for the assembly, edit, and execution of those profiles and methodologies by someone who does not possess detailed domain knowledge.
