Abstract

A computer implemented method for automatically creating and executing a test harness for a workflow includes creating a workflow package including a version identification and a workflow graph definition and creating a workflow instance as a copy of the workflow package. The workflow instance is executed to generate output data and the output data is saved into the workflow instance. The workflow instance is saved, with the output data, as a test archive. One or more components of an updated workflow package are tested with the test archive; and an indication of pass or fail of the testing of the updated workflow package is outputted.
