Abstract
A system that provides easy testing of software objects and reduces the burden on a program developer for maintaining a test system is presented. The system accepts as an input objects and automatically creates test drivers for these objects. The test objects are provided to a test bed comprising an application server where the objects are tested by application of the test drivers. In a preferred embodiment, the test bed comprises a collection of application servers. An application service provider provides the system test driver and the test bed. Access to the test system is provided by passing a representing of the object under test to the application service provided through a network interface. The application service provider provides test services on a fee for service basis.
