Abstract: A system and method to perform planning and performing testing for software modules within an automated development system are described. The system includes a testing module containing an automated test case generation module, a test case execution and analysis module, a regression test planning module a test plan generation module and an automated test plan management module. These modules work together to provide an integrated test platform for creating and managing the test environment, creating test plans and test cases, performing unit level testing, module integration testing and system testing within a single development environment.

Abstract: A method affords the design of a generic structure for a deployment topology and deployable artifact (executable code) packages. After completion of the design, the artifact packages are mapped over the generic topology structure, component information is uploaded into a directory, and the directory used to route service requests. In another embodiment, a method affords the design of a generic structure for system services and user interfaces. After the design, semantics are abstracted and used to data bind the system services and the user interfaces. In another embodiment, a computer information system is described having a gateway layer that permits platform independent deployment and ease of request routing.

Abstract: A system and method to develop large web-based multi-language applications. The Localization and Internationalization approach is described using a Model Based Software Development as its core scheme. The User Interface specifications are captured data into a Model-repository using key modeling elements like Sections and Controls. Controls are the User Interface elements like Text Box, Text Area, Combo box, Display Only, Grid etc. Sections are groupings of Controls. Location, Language and user's Culture can be ignored when the User Interface is modeled. Next step involves sing a Screen Generator to generate User Interface screens for a given Locale. A Screen Generator will get the Layout information as input from the user, and generates the Screen for that Layout.

Abstract: User interfaces created for software systems are used as the basis for gathering and/or disseminating requirements, behavioral specifications, review processes, and documentation. A computer readable medium is described, the medium having computer executable instruction to cause a system perform the method.
