Abstract

A system, method, and computer program product are provided for High Volume Test Automation (HVTA) utilizing recorded automation building blocks. In operation, a testing system identifies at least one HVTA test to perform on a system under test as part of a testing project based on an existing set of tests. The testing system identifies a plurality of generic test functions in an automation repository that are applicable to the at least one HVTA test that has been identified by the testing system as relevant. Additionally, the testing system identifies dependency rules associated with the plurality of generic test functions. Further, the testing system generates at least one test flow utilizing the plurality of generic test functions, based on the dependency rules associated with the plurality of generic test functions. In addition, the testing system organizes an overall test sequence for the at least one HVTA test including the at least one test flow, based on a type of HVTA test to be performed. Moreover, the testing system executes the overall test sequence while monitoring a testing environment of the system under test in real time. The testing system reports anomalies resulti…
