Abstract: In order to provide an improved, less error prone method for testing codes of a software application the following steps are proposed: defining for each test case comprised of a predefined test suite a specific footprint according to its test property, wherein said test case footprint comprises references defining which code sections are tested by said test case, marking code sections of the software application to be tested, identifying a test case of the test suite using its footprint matching at least a part of the marked code of the software application, and applying the identified test case on the software application.

Abstract: Graphic objects generated by a software application executing in a computing environment are evaluated. The computing environment includes a graphical user interface for managing I/O functions, a data storage device for storing computer usable program code and data, and a data processing engine in communication with the graphical user interface and the data storage device The data processing engine receives and processes origin data from the data storage device to produce projected values for data points in the graphic image intended to be displayed. The data processing engine also creates and processes a snapshot of the displayed graphic object to produce actual values of data points in the displayed graphic object, compares the projected values to the actual values, and outputs an indication of the degree of similarity between the intended graphic object and the displayed graphic object.
