Abstract

Web applications have rapid developing speed andchangeable user demands, so the regression testing ismuch important. Since the changed demands result indifferent versions of Web applications, and the faultsusually hiding in the adjusted contents, the regressiontesting must cover all the related pages. In order to carrythrough the regression testing quickly and effectively, wemake the simplification with the method of slicing. Firstly,we analyze the possible changes in the Web applicationsand the influences produced by these changes, discussingin the direct-dependent and indirect-dependent way; next,we give the regression testing method based on slicingemphasized on the indirect-dependent among data, i.e.,obtaining the dependent set of changed variables byForward and Backward Search Method and generatingthe testing suits; conclusion remarks and future work aregiven at last.
