Abstract

Testing of web -based applications presents a number of challenges posed by the heterogeneity of hardware, op erating systems, software platforms, etc. The distributed nature of web-based applications increases behavioral di versity and contributes to complexity. Many web appli cations evolve rapidly and experience frequent changes. These characteristics also make regression testing a chal lenge. This paper proposes a set of rules to identify and classify black box regression testing needs depending on types of changes to web applications. The approach is based on the FSMWeb [1] test generation methodology.
