Abstract
A method of prioritizing and assigning test scripts is provided in a testing platform configured to organize, manage, and facilitate the debugging of test scripts. The test scripts are used in testing software modules. The method includes receiving a plurality of test scripts, applying a predetermined set of factors to each test script, and assigning a weight value to each factor based on a relative importance of the factor. A priority value is set for each test script based on the weighted factors, and the test script is assigned to a queue position for execution based on the corresponding priority value, where the assigned test script is associated with one or more bias factors. The test script is then selected from the testing queue and forwarded if the bias factors indicate that requirements of the test script match corresponding bias factors of the testing individual.
