Patent Images
1. A method executed by a computer, comprising:
- displaying a graphical user interface (GUI) that includes a control;
receiving text instructions in a natural language that semantically describe at least two of a location, type, and allowed action of the control on the GUI and instruct an application being developed to perform a user interface (UI) event on the control;
executing the UI event on the control, andtesting primitives in the natural language to verify automation steps produce particular results using a natural language test.

Abstract
A computer can display a graphical user interface (GUI) that includes a control. The GUI can receive text instructions in a natural language that describe a location of the control on the GUI. The text instructions can instruct an application to perform a user interface (UI) event on the control.

10. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having instructions for causing a computer to execute a method, comprising:
-
displaying a first page of an application being developed that includes an object; receiving a text instruction in a natural language that semantically describes at least two of a location, type, and allowed action of the object on the first page and provides an instruction to execute on the object; executing the instruction on the object to cause the application to display a second page, and testing primitives in the natural language to verify automation steps produce particular results using a natural language test. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A computer system, comprising:
-
a display that displays a graphical user interface (GUI) with an object; a memory storing instructions; and a processor executing the instructions to; receive a natural language text instruction that semantically describes at least two of a location, type, and allowed action of the object on the GUI and provides an instruction to execute on the object; execute the instruction on the object, and test primitives in the natural language test instruction to verify automation steps produce particular results using a natural language test. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
