  • Active content wizard testing
    Patent number: 7574625
    Abstract: Automated testing of active content wizards is provided. A test infrastructure (TI) accesses a list of ACW to test and controls an ACW runtime engine to execute the ACWs. During ACW execution, the TI interacts with the ACW runtime engine to inject simulated user information based upon test information stored relative to each ACW. The TI records errors generated by the ACW runtime engine as well as other errors relative to the ACW. The TI also directs cleanup of the operating environment between each ACW test. Reports of ACW failures can be provided to ACW authors and/or other interested entities for improvement.
