Abstract: A testing framework has been developed to address these issues that takes common functionality normally imported by the testing scripts on the client device and instead splits the functionality into standalone, fault tolerant, scalable services. Accordingly, the scripts can utilize the functionality through APIs and therefore test drivers executing a test or building a test environment or other testing processes may access the services through an API. Therefore, each testing client and test driver does not need to separately import the functionality and run the functionality on the memory of the client device separately. Rather, multiple tests can use these functionalities, allowing the testing services to be scaled between tests.
