Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to software test automation and provide a method, system and apparatus for a reusable software testing framework. In one embodiment of the invention, an automated application test data processing system can include a reusable test automation framework. The system further can include a test task generator and a scenario generator coupled to one another and to the framework. In this regard, the test task generator can be configured to generate uniform logic for performing testing tasks, while the scenario generator can be configured to arrange testing tasks for a complete test scenario. Finally, a collaborative testing environment can be provided through which multiple users can interact with the scenario generator and test task generator to produce test cases of different test scenarios.
