ECSE429 - Software Validation Project

Group 29 : Rania Ouassif

The application under test is a “rest api todo list manager” which may be run as a local host.

Project Part A : Exploratory Testing of Rest API

• Charter Driven Session Based Exploratory Testing

• The charter is:

  • Identify capabilities and areas of potential instability of the “rest api todo list manager”.
  • Identify documented and undocumented “rest api todo list manager” capabilities.
  • For each capability create a script or small program to demonstrate the capability.
  • Exercise each capability identified with data typical to the intended use of the application.

• Unit Test Suite

• Report

Project Part B: Story Testing of Rest API

• Story Test Suite
  • Normal flow
  • Alternate flow
  • Error flow
• Story Test Automation
  • Cucumber.io
• Report

Project Part C: Non-Functional Testing of Rest API

• Performance Testing
  • Dynamic Analysis : As the number of objects increase measure the time required to add, delete, or change the objects.
  • Static Analysis : the Rest API to do list manager will be studied with the community edition of the Sonar Cube static analysis tool.
    • code complexity,
    • code statement counts,
    • any technical risks, technical debt or code smells
