Topological best match naming convention apparatus and method for use in testing graphical user interfaces

摘要: A topological best match naming convention apparatus and method for graphical user interface (GUI) testing are provided. With the method, properties of GUI object recorded stored in a database. During execution test scripts, if lookup an object's name to its runtime control fails, present invention attempts perform with currently known objects. The matching mechanism is based on comparison this mechanism, predetermined set collected from that subject script which failed. Each property objects database assigned weight probability having same object. checked identified, corresponding added total count kept each correspondence. correspondence between highest selected as candidate use determining
