Abstract
As systems get more complex testing has also increased not only in complexity but in the total IT cost, which is estimated to increase even more by 2020. Testing large complex distributed applications is hard, time consuming and lacks tooling. Given that the digitisation of business has proved to be a key aspect for improving the productivity of developers in the delivery of the service to end-users, in this paper we present early results showing how these capabilities can also be provided to testers of software and services, by adopting standard interfaces and leveraging the tools provided by an early research open-source platform, capable of efficiently testing large scale systems, ElasTest.
This work is partially funded by the Swiss State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SBFI) in association with the European Union Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme via grant agreement #731535, for the ElasTest project [5].
