I currently working with embedded linux with bash shell on it. Write now I am working on a test framework for that system. The way it works now I have 3 linux commands lines (ie 3 linux programs in C) that execute a paticular test.
ie
command1 arg1 arg2 arg3 ...
command2 arg3 arg4 arg5 ...
command3 arg6 arg6 arg7 ...
The thing is that the test case combinations are huge. So assume if I have different databases that hold parameters for the 3 command lines. How could I make it so I can generate different combination from the database with out iterating using for loops.
Thanks
What exactly are you asking?
How to create test permutations from a data set? How to query the database for a representative sampling of test data? How to invoke the test data from your automated tests? Something else entirely???
Anyway, here’s a good link on test permutations:
