E-business software is often developed on a tight schedule, and testing needs to keep pace. The advice from proponents of approaches like extreme programming is that by testing continuously, it is actually possible to compress development cycles. In this paper, we discuss a testing approach that supports developers with their task of creating automated functional test drivers for e-business applications. The main goal for the approach is to reduce the time and effort required to automate scenario tests for e-business applications. After motivating the approach, we give an abstract view of a tool we have designed and implemented to support the approach. Next, we give an example of its use, and finally proceed to a discussion of the architecture of the tool itself.
