Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for integrating JAVA objects, such as handlers, into a scripting language to be used as part of a test automation environment including a test automation tool. The environment can access and execute one or more script files coded using diverse scripting languages designed to exercise and test DNS servers, registries, and/or other network entities. The test automation tool can invoke a set of generalized handlers that may comprise compiled JAVA objects configured to perform specific testing functions. The test automation tool may load a script for a test case and a scripting language, establish a controller, and interface the script to the intermediate JAVA handlers to abstract individual script files for use in a more universal fashion, avoiding incompatibilities that can arise between various script languages.
