MIDAS - Model and Inference Driven - Automated testing of Services architectures

The MIDAS project aims at implementing an integrated framework for the automation and intelligent management of SOA testing. The framework is available as a Platform as a Service (PaaS) solution on a cloud infrastructure and supports all the testing activities: generation, execution, result analysis, planning and scheduling. Moreover the framework supports the main testing domains such as functional, interactional, fault tolerance, security and usage-based testing. The test execution environment is based on a distributed TTCN-3 runtime engine. The adopted testing methods and technologies are beyond the state of the art, particularly on model-based testing, fuzzing for security testing, usage-based testing, probabilistic inference reasoning about test evaluation, planning and scheduling. Two pilot SOA testing experiences in different business domains (healthcare and supply chain management) are carried out.
