Abstract:
1. A method for testing a web application internationalization, the method comprising the steps of: setting a base language at a web browser in communication with a web server; obtaining and storing raw HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) transmitted and received data between the web browser and the web server in the base language; analyzing the raw HTTP transmitted and received data in the base language and preparing an HTTP request corresponding to a user specified test object language to be sent to the web server to emulate user operations on the web browser in the user specified test object language to produce HTTP transmitted and received data in the user specified test object language, wherein the preparation of the HTTP request includes prompting a user for input in response to an encountered problem with the preparation of the HTTP request; comparing, without user intervention, the raw HTTP transmitted and received data in the base language with the raw HTTP transmitted and received data in the user specified test object language on a DOM (Document Object Model) level by converting the raw HTTP transmitted and received data in the base language and the raw HTTP transmitted and received data in the user specified test object language into a DOM format; verifying, without user intervention, whether the web application is correctly internationalized based on said comparing; and storing results from said verifying when the web application is correctly internationalized.
