Test bundling and batching optimizations

Abstract:

Test bundling and batching by a test execution framework may be customized in accordance with test suite requirements for testing platform implementations on network-connected, resource-limited devices. Tests, test data and test results may be communicated in bundles or batches. Multiple tests may be bundled into a test application bundle and communicated over a single data connection. Test data for the tests in a bundle may be packaged into a single batch and transferred using a single data connection. Similarly, results from executing the tests in a test application bundle may be batched and transferred together over a single connection. Additionally, a custom user interface may be utilized to allow for customizing the test bundling policy for individual test suites. Providing the ability for a user to customize the test bundling policy may significantly reduce the number of data connections required during test suite execution.
