Abstract

See full text

A framework for improving robustness in the execution of software workflows is described herein. One such workflow is a testing scenario, where multiple testing modules are to be executed sequentially, with some of the modules receiving as input the output of other modules. Many types of modules are contemplated, such as Application Program Interface (API) modules, User Interface (UI) modules, Database (DB) modules, and the like. Each of these modules may invoke, respond to, and/or extract data from various subjects of the testing scenario, among other operations. One aspect of the invention wraps each of these modules in a software component, such that disparate module types can be operated on with a common interface. In one embodiment, the common interface enables a test executor to retry and/or debug the software components in novel ways.
