No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2007-12-28 / The functional testing automation has become a real interest for software development teams, mainly because of the great cost reduction and of the increase of productivity observed on medium and long terms with the use of this practice. This article proposes a framework to improve reusability and manutenability of automated test suites. The proposal was developed on SERPRO and has been used in real projects. The framework, called FuncTest, apply software patterns and the Data-driven and Keyword-driven techniques to organize automated test suites. The efforts to improvement the FuncTest intend to adapt it for generating tests automatically using Model-based Testing technique. / A execução automatizada de testes funcionais tem se tornado um evidente atrativo para empresas de desenvolvimento de software. Tal fato se deve principalmente à grande redução de custo e ao aumento de produtividade observados a médio e a longo prazos com o uso desta prática. Este trabalho propõe um framework para ampliar a reusabilidade e a manutenibilidade de suítes de teste automatizadas. A solução foi desenvolvida no SERPRO e utilizada em projetos reais. O framework, denominado FuncTest, utiliza padrões de software e aplica as técnicas Data-driven e Keyword-driven na estruturação de suítes de teste automatizadas. As iniciativas de aperfeiçoamento do framework visam adaptá-lo para a geração automática de testes usando-se a técnica Model-based Testing.

This diploma thesis compares Grails and Play frameworks. The main goal of the thesis is to provide its readers a comprehensive view of benefits and disadvantages of the two frameworks using thorough comparison.In the first part of the thesis Grails and Play are introduced. In the next part the author defines criteria for comparison and analyses the sample application. The crucial part of this work is the comparison of the frameworks and their results. This work is intended to make the decision proces easier for developers who wants to choose one of these frameworks for their projects.

The goal of this work is to propose a method of comparison and subsequently compare several of the most used Java web application frameworks in the design pattern context. The work describes fundamental design patterns and the compared frameworks, including the patterns implemented by them. Next there is offered a form of evaluation that splits into several criteria and subcriteria, and several sets of weighs representing different scenarios of decision. Frameworks are evaluated and the evaluation is substantiated. Besides the creation of the set of criteria and analysis of individual frameworks, there was an application developed using each of the frameworks, which allowed for a better evaluation by the author. This evaluation is therefore contributive also due to the actual test of the individual frameworks.

This master's thesis deals with difficulties of web application development utilizing web services. The theoretical part describes the essence of service oriented architecture and explains the options of integration using web services. The practical part deals with analysis, design and subsequent implementation of web application. Specifically, the implementation of application for task manager, which is divided into two parts. The server side of application exposes REST services and client side that consumes.

MTsim (Mobile Traffic Simulator) is an Ericsson AB internal software application that is part of 2Gsim. It is used to simulate elements of a GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) network for feature testing and automated testing. It is written in the programming language TSS Language, also known as SMILE which is a proprietary Ericsson programming language. SMILE is based on the principles of state matrix programming which in essence means that each program is on its own a finite state machine. The language is old and was originally intended as a macro language for smaller test programs, not for applications the size of MTsim. It is of interest to evaluate the feasibility of performing an automatic conversion of applications written in SMILE, with special interest in converting MTsim, to a Java framework since Java has many advantages compared to SMILE. Java, as a language, is well suited for larger applications, there are numerous well supported tools and there is a much wider spread competence than there is for SMILE. It is clear that in order to do a full conversion of a SMILE program to a Java framework two applications must be implemented. First a Java framework, which acts as a run time environment, must be designed which can host the translated programs. The other part is an actual translator which takes a SMILE program as input and ouputs a translated Java program. A more sophisticated framework is preferred since it makes the actual translated programs more light weight and easy to read which means higher degree of maintainability. There are different ways to implement state machines in Java but the most flexible and versatile is to implement it as a black-box framework in an object oriented way where the framework has sophisticated mechanisms for message and event handling which is central to any state machine framework. The translation for SMILE can easily be done by using a AST (abstract syntax tree) representation, which is a full representation of the SMILE program in tree-form. The AST is obtained from an intermediate state of the SMILE program compiler.
