摘要:Since testing is a continuous activity throughout the entire development process, it is important to take into account the inherent complexity of the distributed systems architecture that require special testing techniques. In fact, in the distributed test context where a set of parallel testers exchange I/O messages to perform the test, some potential problems of coordination can arise amongst remote testers. These problems are usually known as controllability and Observability issues. The emphasis of recent works is focused on the use of rules based systems that describe the system behavior by simple rules which increase the flexibility and easiness of programming. In this paper, we introduce some technical issues for testing distributed frameworks using rules based systems to overcome such problems.
