Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are described for caching login sessions to access a software testing environment. A server identifies a test case for execution against an application in the software testing environment, the test case comprising one or more test steps. The server retrieves test data based upon the identified test case and generates a session key using the test data. The server requests an active session from a login session cache using the session key. When an active session exists in the login session cache, the server receives, from the login session cache, session data corresponding to the active session, establishes a connection to the application in the software testing environment using the session data and without first authenticating to the software testing environment, and executes one or more test steps of the test case against the application in the software testing environment using the test data.
