2. Solmar Knowledge Networks Ltd. Introduction The Layers method is a part of the OOAT ( Object Oriented Automation Testing ) methodology. The method offers full isolation between information data, GUI implementation and business process. The method offers full modularity and interaction within the layers.

3. Solmar Knowledge Networks Ltd. The Data Layer The data layer are data and keyword driven source xml files. Each xml file represents a test-set that equivalents to a business scenario process.

4. Solmar Knowledge Networks Ltd. The Utils Layer These are common or specific function libraries associated with the scripts. The function libraries holds a common implementation and a generic solution for all the projects.

5. Solmar Knowledge Networks Ltd. The GUI Layer The GUI layer implements all the steps against the AUT. Every GUI “Module” handles one GUI screen. This avoid locked repository files when working within a team and better modularity.

6. Solmar Knowledge Networks Ltd. The Business Layer The Business Layer supports a single business action. The Business layer module can call 1 to n GUI modules. The Business module acts like a controller for the GUI layer.

7. Solmar Knowledge Networks Ltd. The Test or Test-Case Layer The Test Layer is the engine of the layer method. The test layer is responsible to parse the parameters and steps required for a single test- case by calling the required Business Layer Module.

17. Solmar Knowledge Networks Ltd. XML Data Source The data source allow to define multiple instances of the same test-case. Each test-case can implement different data combinations. The data source give flexibility to the test flow, by customizing steps. The xml format allows to define and describe complex data parameters.
