Web Service Testing

Web services technology is becoming increasingly ubiquitous and gaining rapid adoption due to its support for integration of distributed autonomous components. Testing is necessary to assure the performance and functional correctness of web services. Many commercial as well as opensource tools are available today for web service testing. In this paper, we present results of a brief survey of web service testing tools. The study will provide an informative overview and may help in selection and use of appropriate testing tools.

The Impact

Web services technology gained popularity in recent years and became an evident model of Web. The benefits offered by web services include provision of platform for interaction of several applications through the Internet. Users interact with web services by means of Internet. The tremendous advancement in Internet technology has enabled new form of services and activities. Performance of web services is of great importance to the users and is heavily dependent on underlying Internet access technologies. In this paper, we describe three mostly used Internet access technologies and analyze the performance of web services over these technologies by using open-source web service testing tools. Results of the comparison will help in better understanding the impact of these technologies on performance of web services, and also selection and usage of suitable Internet access technologies for web services.

Restful Services

AbstractModern RESTful services expose RESTful APIs to integrate with diversified applications. Most RESTful API parameters are weakly typed, which greatly increases the possible input value space. This poses difficulties for automated testing tools to generate effective test cases to reveal web service defects related to parameter validation. We call this phenomenon the type collapse problem. To remedy this problem, we introduce FET (Format-encoded Type) techniques, including the FET, the FET lattice, and the FET inference to model fine-grained information for API parameters. Enhanced by FET techniques, automated testing tools can generate targeted test cases. We demonstrate Leif, a trace-driven fuzzing tool, as a proof-of-concept implementation of FET techniques. Experiment results on 27 commercial services show that FET inference precisely captures documented parameter definitions, which helps Leif to discover 11 new bugs and reduce $$72\% \sim 86\%$$ 72 % ∼ 86 % fuzzing time as compared to state-of-the-art fuzzers.

Web Service Testing

Software testing is an important technique that used to assure the quality of Web application. Test case automated generation is a crucial aspect of Web Service testing. Test case automated generation for Web Service includes test date and operation sequence generation. To resolve the problem that operation sequence couldn’t be generated automatically, this paper presents a new method. Firstly, a directed graph which used to express the relationship among the operations of Web Service is constructed, and then an operation sequences generation algorithm base on the directed graph is proposed. The redundancy of operation sequences is checked in this algorithm in order to avoid redundant test cases generation. A case study shows that the method is feasible.
