Abstract
A system and method for dynamically testing a web-based server device on multiple platforms. Test scripts are provided to one or more test devices for simulating one or more web-based users for testing the web-based server. A database associated with the web-based server stores test configuration and test parameter information in varying degrees of granularity for each simulated web-based user. This test configuration and test parameter information is retrieved from the database according to the desired test simulation and a web-based communication, e.g., HTML web-page, is downloaded to the test scripts via a control device for initiating the simulation. A further web-based communication is generated for access by a test script which includes information enabling dynamic control of the test devices during a test simulation.
