Cloud-Enabled Software Testing Based on Program Understanding

Cloud computing provides an innovative technology that enables Software as a Service (SaaS) to its customers. With cloud computing technologies, a suite of program understanding tools is suggested to be deployed in a cloud to aid the generation of test cases for software testing. This cloud-enabled service allows customers to use these tools through an on-demand, flexible, and pay-per-use model. Lastly, the issues and challenges of cloud computing are presented.
