Abstract :
Comparing with the testing of conventional software systems, the testing of service-oriented systems (SOS) is considerably more challenging. Fault injection is a standard software testing approach that can be applied to the SOS. It is used in this paper as a base for testing of web service business processes at communication channel level as well as message level. The proposed approach provides simulation of combination of several faults during message exchange in order to generate negative test cases. The supported types of faults are message delay, failure of the communication channel, sending or receiving a message with corrupted structure, sending or receiving a message with wrong data.
