Introduction

General Information

• • Principal Investigator: Chia Hung Kao, Department of Applied Mathematics, National Taitung University, Taiwan

  • Project Duration: Aug. 2016 - July 2017

  • Funding: Ministry of Science and Technology, Taiwan

Problem Statement

• • Deployment and configuration of the test environment in virtualization context is complex and time consuming

  • Deployment and configuration of usage scenarios is critical for end-to-end testing and evaluation

  • Automatic control and execution is critical for efficient testing and evaluation tasks

  • A generic and extensible framework for further reuse

Solution

• • A framework aims to provide an integrated environment for software testers from test environment configuration, usage scenario deployment to automatic test and evaluation execution, that helps to achieve the functional and quality evaluation on virtualization technologies efficiently
