  • Publication number: 20130031416
    Abstract: Test components—here denominated entities—are handled by a test framework and wrapped in a common API (application programming interface) which provides command execution, file handling and inter-communication. The entities are interchangeable parameters to the test, hiding platform-specific code from the test developer and promoting code re-use. Retargettability is enabled by allowing specific systems—physical machines, for example—to be specified on a per test run basis, without changing generic test code.
    Type: Application
