Abstract
A system and method may generate a test process a workflow operated by software by, using definitions of a workflow relating to software data processing and user interface (UI) elements, produce test case flows and UI element details, UI element details including UI actions and control types; map steps in test case flows to steps describing UI element details; and for each mapping produce a test script, Test case flows may include series of entries, each including a step, steps describing workflow sub-tasks and each step corresponding to UI actions. Each test script may include a series of UI actions, the UI actions including UI verify and input operations. UI actions may describe interactions with a UI element. UI actions may include validations (e.g. checking if the output or the result of a step matches what is expected, and producing a report) of a UI element.
