Abstract
A process can be used to test an application. In general, the process can include a transaction definition portion, a validation portion, and an optional modification portion. Unlike the conventional processes, the testing can be performed using “scriptless” transactions. The transaction definition may occur during navigation by a user through a network site while data regarding application is collected. Alternatively, a user may select transactable components or transactions from a list or a group of icons. In still another alternative, the transaction definition may be performed automatically using log files or component relationship data. Validation may be performed in-process or out-of-process to give greater flexibility. Modification may be performed manually or automatically. Also, modification may be performed after validation has started but before it is completed.
