Abstract

Workflow test case generation may include receiving an intermediate output of a workflow. The intermediate output of the workflow may reference a plurality of workflow building blocks that provide a specified functionality at each step of the workflow. Workflow definitions of the intermediate output of the workflow may be analyzed to generate a graph structure that represents the workflow. Building block attributes that include an identification of attributes for the plurality of workflow building blocks, and the graph structure may be analyzed to generate building block and attribute information for the workflow. The building block and attribute information and the graph structure may be analyzed to generate test paths for the workflow. The building block and attribute information, the test paths, and a plurality of test case templates may be analyzed to generate test artifacts that include testing to be performed for the workflow.
