“…He has measured contract coverage metric with his proposed technique. Yotyawilai and Taratip (2014) have proposed a test case generation technique from business process model and notation (BPMN) for SOA applications but they have not focused towards the instant services used. Nonchot and Taratip (2016) focused on the instant services used by the web services.…”

In this article, we propose a novel method for black-box test case generation for business process execution language (BPEL) processes. We also propose a method to compute hit ratio percentage metric. We also compute the total time taken for test case generation and the speed of test case generation. We design the service-oriented architecture (SOA)-based applications using OpenESB tool. We have developed a code converter to generate Tcases compatible .xml code because the OpenESB generated .xml code is incompatible with Tcases input framework. After that, we compute the hit ratio percentage with the help of Hit Ratio Calculator. We have experimented with 12 SOA-based applications, on an average, we achieve 62.78% of hit ratio with an average time of 873.08 ms and speed of 32.41 ≈ 32 test cases per second.

PurposeTesting business processes is crucial to assess the compliance of business process models with requirements. Automating this task optimizes testing efforts and reduces human error while also providing improvement insights for the business process modeling activity. The primary purposes of this paper are to conduct a literature review of Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) testing and formal verification and to propose the Business Process Evaluation and Research Framework for Enhancement and Continuous Testing (bPERFECT) framework, which aims to guide business process testing (BPT) research and implementation. Secondary objectives include (1) eliciting the existing types of testing, (2) evaluating their impact on efficiency and (3) assessing the formal verification techniques that complement testing.Design/methodology/approachThe methodology used is based on Kitchenham's (2004) original procedures for conducting systematic literature reviews.FindingsResults of this study indicate that three distinct business process model testing types can be found in the literature: black/gray-box, regression and integration. Testing and verification approaches differ in aspects such as awareness of test data, coverage criteria and auxiliary representations used. However, most solutions pose notable hindrances, such as BPMN element limitations, that lead to limited practicality.Research limitations/implicationsThe databases selected in the review protocol may have excluded relevant studies on this topic. More databases and gray literature could also be considered for inclusion in this review.Originality/valueThree main originality aspects are identified in this study as follows: (1) the classification of process model testing types, (2) the future trends foreseen for BPMN model testing and verification and (3) the bPERFECT framework for testing business processes.

“…The test execution verdicts are injected into the BPMN model by colouring the different elements. There are also another work on BPMN [4], which focuses on test case generation in an XML format. Our modeling approach is close to BPMN but allowing the generation of test cases directly in test tools or more simply in Excel format (see next section).…”

The Agile and DevOps transformation of software development practices enhances the need for increased automation of functional testing, especially for regression testing. This poses challenges both in the effort that needs to be devoted to the creation and maintenance of automated test scripts, and in their relevance (i.e. their alignment with business needs). Test automation is still difficult to implement and maintain and the return on investment comes late while projects tend to be short. In this context, we have experimented a lightweight model-based test automation approach to address both productivity and relevance challenges. It integrates test automation through a simple process and tool-chain experimented on large IT projects.
