Patent ID: 8615738

Claim:
A method of using a computer device for modularizing testing of a software product, the method comprising: using the computer device to receive user selection of test script content, the test script content being at a source among a plurality of sources; using the computer device to receive, as user input, a user interface gesture indicating the source and a destination of the selected test script content; and using the computer device, in response to the received user interface gesture, to create a reference link at the destination linking to the selected test script content at the source, the reference link effectively linking modification of the test script content at the destination to modification of the test script content at the source such that subsequent modification of the test script content at the source is automatically made at the destination and at each destination linked to the source by a respective user interface gesture created link, without additional user input being performed; permitting re-use of the test script content by user selection of the test script content for at least one subsequent destination, for each subsequent destination there being a respective user interface gesture created reference link such that subsequent modification of the test script content at the source is automatically made at each of the subsequent destinations without additional user input being performed, such that testing of a software design is modularized.
