Object oriented framework for testing software
First Claim
1. A software testing system for testing software, the software operating within a computing system, the software testing system comprising:
- a set-up and control system, the set-up and control system includinga user interface for interacting with a user of the software testing system, andstorage means, for storing test data and for storing test configurations; and
,a test system, coupled to the set-up and control system, the test system including;
testing set-up means for setting up test cases from the test data and the test configurations stored in the storage means, each test case inheriting attributes from at least one test object within the test system, the inherited attributes facilitating interaction of the test system with the test cases.

Abstract
A software testing system tests software. The software testing system includes a set-up and control system, and one or more test systems connected to the set-up and control system. The set-up and control system includes a user interface for interacting with a user of the software testing system. The set-up and control system stores test data and test configurations. Each test system sets up test cases from the test data and the test configurations stored in the set-up and control system. Each test case inherits attributes from at least one test object within the test system. The inherited attributes facilitates the interaction of the test system with the test cases.

9. A method for testing software, the method comprising the following steps:
-
(a) storing test data and test configurations within a set-up and control system, including the following substep; (a.1) obtaining the test data and test configurations through a user interacting with a user interface of the set-up and control system; and
,(b) setting up, by a test system which is connected to the set-up and control system, test cases from the test data and the test configurations stored in step (a), including the following substep, (b.1) inheriting attributes, by each test case, from at least one test object within the test system, the inherited attributes facilitating interaction of the test system with the test cases. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
