Method and system for automatic generation and testing of voice applications

摘要

A method ( 100 ) and system ( 30 ) to enable automatic generation and testing of voice applications includes generating ( 102 ) a test driver application (TDA) ( 32 ) and generating ( 104 ) a modified original voice application ( 34 ) to be tested by the TDA within a call flow builder ( 10 ). The modified application can include or generate ( 106 ) "test hooks" or more particularly DTMF tones and DTMF grammars that can be used to synchronize the modified original voice application with the TDA. The TDA can test ( 110 ) all possible paths of the modified original voice application. Note the TDA and the modified original voice application can be generated and/or tested ( 112 ) in a test environment within the call flow builder or a telephony environment. The TDA can be automatically generated ( 108 ) to exercise all possible flows where the DTMF tones define the current state and location of the modified application.
