To achieve efficient software testing under cloud computing environment, a method of generating parallel test cases automatically for functional testing of Web application system was proposed. First, parallel test paths were obtained by conducting depth-first traversal algorithm on scene flow graph; then parallel test scripts were assembled from test scripts referred by the test paths, and parameterized valid test data sets that can traverse target test paths and replace test data in script were generated using Search Based Software Testing (SBST) method. A vast number of automatic distributable parallel test cases were generated by inputting test data into parallel test scripts. Finally, a prototype system of automatic testing in cloud computing environment was built for examination of the method. The experimental results show that the method can generate a large number of valid test cases rapidly for testing in cloud computing environment and improve the efficiency of testing.
