Abstract
Embodiments of the invention provide for utilizing an intelligent automated script to test software applications. According to one embodiment, testing a software application can comprise executing a test script for testing a plurality of versions of the software application. For example, executing the test script can comprise instantiating a first instance of the test script for testing the first version of the software application. The first version of the software application can be initiated and a temporary map of the first version of the software application can be built by the test script. The first version of the software application can be tested based on the temporary map. In some cases, a second instance of the test script can be instantiated for testing a second version of the software application. In such cases, the first and second versions of the application may be tested in parallel.
