Abstract: A method performed on a test automation platform by a computing device is disclosed. The disclosed method comprises: a step of generating the markup language document from a test script (the test script is created in a script language so as to include the definition of a user-defined function for use in testing a device under test (DUT) and a markup language document includes a script element for inserting the definition of the user-defined function into the markup language document); and a step of running a program engine (the program engine is an existing component of the test automation platform and includes an interpreter for the script language) in order to process the created markup language document.
