Abstract

Web services are extensively used nowadays as a typically application 
programming interfaces for Business-to-Business process collaboration and BEPL 
(Business Process Execution Language) is an emerging standard language to 
orchestrating multiple web services. BPEL also offers advanced features such as 
concurrency and hierarchy which provides different programming construct from 
traditional sequential program. There are studies to propose Unit test 
framework and test cases generation; however, there is lack of studies in 
evaluating the testing criteria against BPEL. To address this issue, an 
empirical study is conducted to evaluate some test criteria derived from 
traditional sequential program testing. Also, a schedule-related criterion is 
introduced to compare the test case efficiency and fault reviewing power 
against the tradition test criteria.
