Abstract EN

To appropriately realize the performance of a web service, it is essential to give it a comprehensive testing.

Although an elastic test could be guaranteed in traditional cloud testing systems, the geographical test that supports real user behavior simulation remains a problem.

In this paper, we propose a testing system based on a crowdsourcing model to carry out the distributed test on a target web server automatically.

The proposed crowdsourcing-based testing system (CTS) provides a reliable testing model to simulate real user web browsing behaviors with the help of web browsers scattered all around the world.

In order to make the entire test process the same as the real situation, two test modes are proposed to simulate real user activity.

By evaluating every single resource of web service automatically, a tester can not only find out internal problems but also understand the performance of the web service.

In addition, the complete geographical test is available with the performance measurements coming from different regions in the world.

Several experiments are performed to validate the functionality and usability of CTS.

It demonstrates that CTS is a complete and reliable web service testing system, which provides unique functions and satisfies different requirements.
