Abstract
A system described herein may use automated techniques to programmatically validate software-under-test ('SUT') using different sets of test cases for different functions of the SUT. The system may generate the different sets of test cases based on a selected test methodology and a self-description of the SUT function calls, function arguments, and/or argument types. The system may convert the test cases to executable-code and/or network messaging that can be used to call the SUT functions with different input combinations for the arguments and/or argument types of the SUT functions, and that can capture the output that results from each function call.
