Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for testing browser-adapting server applications according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
- context Data that is made available to one or more users.
- This information is usually tied to a fixed environment, such as email, World-Wide-Web, FTP or even independent programs through which this information can be called up.
- a fixed environment such as email, World-Wide-Web, FTP or even independent programs through which this information can be called up.
- By binding the information to its environment its format is very often predetermined.
- information on the World Wide Web is available as HTML
- FTP texts, programs, etc.
- information from information systems that can often be found in the intranet area is in one Format that is specifically defined only for this environment.
- the information that is offered, for example, on the World Wide Web (WWW) and Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) servers is often adapted to the capabilities of the accessing browser.
- Databases that provide information about the capabilities of each individual browser must be kept on these servers or in applications that can be accessed via these servers. Since an almost unmanageable number of browsers are used worldwide, the effort to update these databases should not be neglected.
- key information contains, for example, information about the type, type and current version of the browser, about the browser supported, natural languages, the supported file and graphic formats, etc.
- a new browser If a new browser appears on the national or international market, it must be added to the database together with information about its capabilities and then the browser-adapting server application checked for its adaptation process. If changes need to be made to the adaptation process, a check must be carried out for the browsers previously supported by the browser-adapting server application to ensure that the changes made to the adaptation process have no effect on the previously supported browsers. Depending on, for example, the number of browsers already supported and the number of functions implemented in a server application, this can lead to a considerable amount of testing. Depending on the availability of resources, this test effort can lead to a considerable time delay in the support of newly released browsers. A timely update of the server application is only possible with considerable use of resources.
- the procurement of the new browsers can lead to a further time delay so that they can then be used on site for testing.
- a suitable test environment for all types of browsers must be provided.
- the object of the invention is to provide a method for testing adaptation methods for adapting information-providing server applications to the capabilities of information-requesting browsers with little effort, so as to reduce the test effort for browser-adapting server applications to a minimum.
- the method for simplified testing of browser-adapting server applications is based on using the key information recorded by means of other server applications not described here in as large a number as possible of different browser types and versions in order to use them
- the key information of each individual browser type and each individual version is transmitted to a browser-adapting server application.
- the information returned by the server application can then, for. B. be compared with the information e.g. has been delivered before the adaptation process was changed.
- the invention makes use of the fact that adaptation methods for browser-adapting server applications are based on the evaluation of information that can be learned directly or indirectly via an information-querying browser.
- information is always exactly the information that the information-requesting browser passes directly to the server application.
- This information referred to here as key information, can be used to find out more information about a browser.
- a database can be used for this purpose, which contains this indirect information for a server application.
