Abstract:As one of the most popular software applications, a web application is a program accessible through the web that dynamically generates content based on user interactions or contextual data; examples include online shopping platforms, social networking sites, and financial services. Web applications operate in diverse environments and leverage web technologies such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Ajax, often incorporating features like asynchronous operations to enhance user experience. Due to the growing number of users and the popularity of web applications, the quality of these applications has become increasingly important. Web Application Testing (WAT) plays a vital role in ensuring the functionality, security, and reliability of web applications. Given the speed with which web technologies are evolving, WAT is especially important. In the last twelve years, various WAT approaches have been developed. The diversity of approaches reflects the many aspects of web applications, such as dynamic content, asynchronous operations, and diverse user environments. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the main achievements over the last twelve years: It examines the main steps involved in WAT, including test case generation and execution, as well as evaluation and assessment. The currently available tools for WAT are also examined. The paper also discusses open research challenges and potential future work in WAT.
