IDENTIFYING CLIENT STATES

摘要

An illustrative embodiment of a method for identifying client states, receives a set of paths representative of a document object model (DOM) associated with a web page of a rich Internet application and for each path in the set of paths received, extracts a subtree, as Subtree X, for a current path. The method traverses all known sub-paths under the current path and delete corresponding subtrees from Subtree X and reads contents of and determines states of Subtree X to form a State X. The State X is added to a set of current states and responsive to a determination no more paths exist, returns the set of current states of the rich Internet application.
