A method and apparatus is disclosed herein for facilitating user interaction in web-related activities. In one embodiment, the method comprises monitoring a user's current interaction with a browser, predicting a task a user is likely to take based on a current interaction context associated with the user's current interaction and one or more rules previously generated based on one or more previously recorded browser interactions, and generating, based on the prediction, and displaying a user interface component with the browser, the user interface component selectable by the user and representing an interaction (or a sequence of interactions) that the user can select to occur.

A method and apparatus is disclosed herein for automated test input generation for web applications. In one embodiment, the method comprises performing a source-to-source transformation of the program; performing interpretation on the program based on a set of test input values; symbolically executing the program; recording a symbolic constraint for each of one or more conditional expressions encountered during execution of the program, including analyzing a string operation in the program to identify one or more possible execution paths, and generating symbolic inputs representing values of variables in each of the conditional expressions as a numeric expression and a string constraint including generating constraints on string values by modeling string operations using finite state transducers (FSTs) and supplying values from the program's execution in place of intractable sub-expressions; and generating new inputs to drive the program during a subsequent iteration based on results of solving the recorded string constraints.

A method and apparatus is disclosed herein for automated testing of an application. A processing system executes the application using test input values that are generated for testing the application with respect to a property of interest. During execution, constraints among symbolic variables of the application are collected. Property state is collected and is used to determine whether a branch in the application is relevant to the property. Based on the collected constraints and branch relevancy, new test input values are generated. The process is repeated until all paths in the application corresponding to relevant branches have been explored.

A method and apparatus is disclosed herein for formal specification and analysis of timing properties. In one embodiment, the method comprises receiving a software design that includes timing behaviors expressed in a specification language; analyzing the timing behaviors; and using abstract interpretation based static analysis to detect misuses of one or more timing constructs.

A method and apparatus is disclosed herein for using a language framework for composable programs. In one embodiment, the method comprises accessing active content having a software component embedded therein, where the software component has a plurality of components that together implement a work flow of a sequence of activities, the plurality of components representing one or more external services, one or more user interface controls and one or more inputs and output; executing the software component, including mediating communication between components using an information flow-based security model.

A method and apparatus is disclosed herein for determining whether a test case is to be included in a test suite. In one embodiment, the method comprises executing an application with test inputs of a test case during performance of software application testing and using a Finite State Machine (FSM) model of observable events generated from execution of other test cases in the test suite to determine whether to include the test case in the test suite for use in future testing of the application.
