Testing transactions in Service Oriented Architectures

Abstract

This proposal studies the web transactions characteristics in Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) from a testing point of view. Our idea is to define adequacy criteria to test web transactions. This will be accomplished using risk analysis techniques in order to take into account the possible failures of the transactions. An adaptation of risk-based methodologies (like HAZOP or FMEA) will be applied to define adequacy criteria and the corresponding tests
