Patent ID: 7890932

Claim:
A test recording method for recording a result of testing a program developed based on prescribed design specifications, comprising: detecting if a related test was conducted most recently, the related test specified by a related test number described in a current test specification out of a plurality of test specifications each defining contents of a test, test numbers being given to the plurality of test specifications, a test number of a related test specification corresponding to the related test being set as the related test number in each of the plurality of test specifications, the related test required to be conducted most recently; transmitting test input data to a testing server only when the related test was conducted most recently, the test input data entered from a testing client, the testing server provided with the program and an output processing program describing a process for adding a hash value to test output data of the program, the hash value generated from the program by an algorithm that makes a different hash value when the program is modified; determining a test result, pass or fail, by comparing the test output data with an output pattern, the test output data output from the testing server running the program in response to the test input data, the output pattern described in the current test specification; and storing a test log in a log memory, the test log including the test result and the hash value generated by the testing server running the output processing program.
