Abstract

This paper presents testing techniques to automatically generate a set of test cases and data for web services. These techniques extend the ones based on Data Perturbation presented by Offutt and Xu, to which are added mutation operators, boundary values considering XML Schema facets, testing cases using relationship defined in the message schema, UDDI integration and an internal database to collect and use values previously captured from messages. Together with these techniques, a tool (GenAutoWS ) was developed for proof of concepts.
