Abstract

A test code is generated based on a test rule relating to testing of executable code. The test code is executed to perform a test of the executable code, where executing the test code causes performance of actions including operation of user-activatable control elements of the executable code. In response to detecting an abnormal behavior of the executable code during the test, instructions of the test code relating to the actions are saved to allow a replay of the test to identify a cause of the abnormal behavior.
