Abstract
A system and method for separating execution behaviors from test cases and consolidating execution behaviors in an execution behavior manager comprising or in communication with an execution behavior library. The method includes selecting an execution behavior for executing a step or action in a test case and sending the execution behavior to the test case for execution. Additionally, the system and method provide for applying global and local weightings to the execution behavior selection process and allow for replaying a test case with previously executed behaviors.
