Abstract

A system and method for interactive test coverage are disclosed. An example embodiment receives a document object model representation of a user interface page and determines at least one visible and interactive element in the document object model. If there are multiple visible interactive elements, an example embodiment creates a CSS selector for each element. A CSS selector identifies the element by information including ancestry tags from a root node to a leaf node. In one embodiment, a determination is made regarding whether the current CSS selector is similar to previously-stored CSS selectors. An example embodiment stores the CSS selector when no previously-stored CSS selectors are similar. A user interface test is executed and a determination is made as to whether the elements represented by the stored CSS selectors were invoked by the test. Results from the test execution can be displayed to a user via a user interface display.
