1. A method for reusing a test automation framework across multiple applications, the method comprising:
receiving, by a computer, a selection of one or more scripts from a user to test an application; creating, by the computer, an execution list containing every selected test script; copying, by the computer, at least one utility function and at least one common function into a computer-readable memory so that the at least one utility function and at least one common function are available to be referenced by an executed test script, wherein the utility function defines a function used by the test automation framework and the common function defines a function that is test script-specific; referencing, by the computer, a test script repository for one of the one or more test scripts having a test name that matches a name in the execution list; loading, by the computer, the instructions of the test script into the computer-readable memory when the test script is found in the test script repository; executing, by the computer, the test script to test the application according to the instructions defined in the test script and according to computer instructions defined by the utility functions or the common functions when the test script calls either the common function or the utility function; checking, by the computer, a status of the application after the test terminates operation; and recovering and closing, by the computer, the application if the application failed before executing a second test script testing the application under test. |
