Abstract

See full text

A computer implemented method of automatically generating tests for COBOL code units, comprises using at least one hardware processor adapted to designate a COBOL source code comprising a plurality of code lines, extract automatically a plurality of code units each comprising a subset of the code lines for executing one or more functionalities of the COBOL source code, the code units are identified by analyzing the plurality of code lines, generate automatically one or more tests for testing each of the code units by generating an input stimulus for each of the code units, and create one or more mock code segments to simulate interaction of each code unit with one or more external code segment comprising code lines not included in the code unit and testing each code unit using the one or more test(s).
