Abstract :
Web application testing is concerned with numerous and complicated testing objects, methods and processes. In order to improve the testing efficiency, we firstly analyze the necessity and feasibility of the automatic and intelligent testing for Web applications; Then, we discuss several scenes of applying agent into Web application testing, such as using agent to obtain users´ visiting actions, carry out performance testing, regression testing and usability evolvement; next, we adopt agent to execute the testing, including the testing process and the detailed actions, so as to monitor, manage and handler exceptions during the whole testing execution. Thus, in this way, the Web application testing can be completed more automatically and intelligently.
