Smart Test Executor
5 May 22
A method is provided for use in a test execution system, comprising: selecting a test that is stored in a test manager; identifying one or more test configuration parameters that are associated with the test; detecting if a job uniform resource locator (URL) is available for the test; if the job URL is available, retrieving the job URL, providing the job URL to a test tool, and executing the test by using the test tool; if the job URL is not available, identifying one or more test configuration parameters that are associated with the test, mapping each of the test configuration parameters to a corresponding job parameter, generating the job URL based on any of the corresponding job parameters, providing the job URL to the test tool, and executing the test by using the test tool.
