Relationships between a target object and other objects within a software application are identified, where the software application includes an operation to perform on the target object. The relationships are tested to determine relationships that are useful for identifying the target object when the operation is performed on the target object, and a set of useful relationships is generated.

Relation-based identification of automation objects

A system and method of automating software testing is provided. The system and method may determine whether some of a plurality of anchor points within application instructions is triggered in response to input from a current operation within operation instructions. If some of the plurality of anchor points is triggered, one of the triggered anchor points may be selected. Instructions may be generated that configure a given processor to pause after the current operation until the selected one of the triggered anchor points completes.

Automating software testing

A method for automatic revision of an automation script includes obtaining a sequence of at least one classified recorded action and an automation script, the automation script including a sub-sequence of the sequence of classified recorded actions, wherein each action is included in the automation script in accordance with the classification of that action. At least a portion of the automation script is executed. Upon failure of an action of the portion of the automation script to execute, an action of the sequence of classified recorded actions is reclassified, it is verified if the action that failed to execute executes successfully after the reclassifying, and the automation script is revised. Relating computer program product and data processing system are also disclosed.

Automatic classification adjustment of recorded actions for automation script

A computer performs an action called for by a script. The computer determines how to perform the action based in part on a role template not included in the script and based in part on a role-template extension included in the script.

Role-based automation scripts

A method for web automation includes providing a self dependent automation script. The self dependent automation script includes a script model that includes instructions to be executed by a processor, and an incorporated runtime engine configured to execute the script model on the processor. The method further includes applying a runtime engine selected from a set of at least one runtime engine, the set including at least the incorporated runtime engine, so as to execute the script model. A computer program product and data processing system are also disclosed.

System and method for self dependent web automation

Techniques for using action significance levels in an automation system are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, an automation system includes an event detector, and event analyzer, and a player. The event detector is configured to detect an event affecting execution of an application being monitored by the automation system. The event analyzer is configured to analyze a detected event and determine importance of an action causing the event to operation of the application. Based on the determined importance, the event analyzer assigns one of a plurality of predetermined significance levels to the action. The player is configured to reproduce each action assigned a significance level at least as high as a selected replay level and to not reproduce any action assigned a significance level lower than the replay level.

Significance level automation

A adaptive object identification mechanism provides an object description of an object of an application that is executed by a processor, where the object description is based on attributes associated with the object. When an operation on the object is detected, the attributes of the object are sampled at the time of the operation and compared with the object description to assess whether the attributes have changed. The object description is then adjusted based on the assessment.

Adaptive object identification

In at least some embodiments, a computer system includes a processor and a computer-readable storage medium coupled to the processor and storing a scripting application. The scripting application, when executed, is configured to coordinate use of a browser engine privacy mode with emulation of user operations on a browser-hosted application.
