Abstract

Software testing is a software engineering practice that improves the quality of developed computer systems. It is a testing discipline strongly related to the agile software development method Extreme Programming (XP) [2], thus this paper examines acceptance tests mostly from a XP viewpoint. Nowadays, there are many online portals in which a large database of software projects can be found. If developers intent to run acceptance tests in those software, they must always have a complete development environment installed. In this paper, we present FLOAppTest, a visual online (remote) tool integrated to a collaborative environment (like Source Forge) that makes Java projects testing easy by offering a fashion to generate executable acceptance scripts with EasyAccept framework support.
