自动化软件测试实施指南

章节摘录

版权页：插图：Once a test has failed, the tester will usually have to perform some"focused" testing by modifying the original test scenario, if necessary, to determine the application's "breaking point," or the factors that cause or do not cause the system to break. During this exercise ,architectural knowledge of the SUT can be of great help to the tester. It will enable the test engineer to perform more useful and specific investigative testing, and perhaps allow him or her to skip additional superfluous and unrelated testing altogether, since knowledge of the underlying components allows him or her to determine eadditional information about the problem. For example, if the application encounters a connection problem with the database, then it is not necessary to attempt the operation with different data values.Instead, before testing can continue, the focus will be on resolving the connection issues.
