Abstract

PURPOSE:To collectively conduct a test on plural pieces of test data for plural programs by providing a test execution processing part which collectively conducts the test on plural pieces of test data that are registered and a test result output processing part editing/outputting a test result. CONSTITUTION:The test execution processing part 4 judges the programs corresponding to test data from the identifier of a header part in test data, calls the programs from a program library 11 existing in a storage device 8 and conducts the test. Test data which is tested and the test result are made into a pair and it is outputted to an intermediate file 10 existing in a storage device 7. A control processing part 2 controls a series of a test data input processing and a test execution processing so that they are executed until all test data files 9 are tested. The test data result output processing part 5 classifies all the programs which are tested, into a normal system and an abnormal system so as to output a list 13.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a program batch test device, and more particularly, to test a plurality of registered test data collectively when testing a program. The present invention also relates to a program batch test device that edits and outputs the result.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when testing a plurality of programs, the test has been performed for each program. To test one program, input test data as many times as test data, execute test,
I had to output the test results.

In addition, when a program that has been previously tested is retested with test data that has been previously tested due to a partial change of the program or the like, input of test data is performed in the same manner as when the test was previously performed. , Had to run tests and print test results.

[0004]

In the conventional program batch test apparatus described above, conventionally, when a plurality of programs are tested, each program is tested. Also, in order to test one program, it was necessary to input test data, execute the test, and output the test result by the number of test data. Therefore, the more test data, the more the test execution becomes possible. It took time.

Also, when a program that has been tested before is retested with test data that was previously tested due to a partial change of the program or the like, input of test data is the same as when the test was previously performed. Since I had to execute the test and output the test result, I always spent a lot of time on executing the test while maintaining the program.

[0006]

A program batch test apparatus according to the present invention comprises a test data input processing section for reading test data registered by a test data input apparatus from a test data file, and a program designated by the read test data. A test execution processing unit that performs a read test from the program library, a test result output processing unit that edits and outputs a test result, and a control processing unit that controls the whole are provided.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of a program batch test apparatus of the present invention.

The program batch test apparatus of this embodiment is
As shown in FIG. 1, the test data input device (12) registers the test data in the test data file (9) existing in the storage device 1 (6). The structure of this test data is composed of a header part and a data part. The header part is an identifier for identifying which program this test data is test data for, and this test data is normal test data. It consists of a data type to identify whether it is abnormal test data. The data part consists of the actual values passed to the program you want to test.

As described above, the test data input device (12)
After the test data is registered in the test data file (9), the operation of the program batch test device (1) is started from the test data input device (12).

In the program batch test apparatus (1) having started the operation, first, the control processing unit (2) constituting the program batch test apparatus (1) is activated. The activated control processing unit (2) activates the test data input processing unit (3).

The test data input processing unit (3) checks whether test data exists in the test data file (9), reads the test data if it exists, and transfers control to the test execution processing unit (4).

The test execution processing unit (4) determines the program corresponding to the test data from the identifier of the header portion of the test data, reads the program from the program library (11) existing in the storage device 3 (8), and executes the test. Then, the test data and the test result that have been tested are output to the intermediate file (10) existing in the storage device 2 (7) as a pair.

The control processing unit (2) controls the series of test data input processing and test execution processing to be executed until all the test data in the test data file (9) have been tested. After the test of all the test data is completed, the test result output processing unit (5) is activated.

The test result output processing unit (5) classifies the test data and test results output to the intermediate file (10) into normal system and abnormal system for each program, outputs a list (13), and outputs the program batch. The operation of the test device (1) is ended.

[0016]

As described above, the program batch test apparatus of the present invention can bring about the following effects.

First, a plurality of test data for a plurality of programs can be collectively tested, and the time required for the test can be shortened. Secondly, once the test data is registered in the test data file, the test can be repeated any number of times thereafter. Third, the man-hours required for managing test data and test results can be significantly reduced.
