Research on the analysis and measurement for testing results of Web applications

Reasonable analysis and corrective measurement for the testing results of Web applications can effectively judge the effect and efficiency of the testing. Therefore, based on the previous work, we propose a new method for testing results analysis and comparison, which uses the semantic label and XML description technique to realize the information separation between data and display in the Web pages, so as to directly compare the testing results and the expected results. Furthermore, combined with the realities, we determine the metric indexes of Web application testing, so as to provide the criterions and guidelines for the evaluations of the Web applications and their testing processes. And we introduce the feedback control mechanism into the development and evolvement of Web applications, so as to further improve the system quality
