Example methods

Figure 1 is a schematic flowchart of a method for automatically writing test cases provided by an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment can be applied to electronic devices. As shown in Figure 1, the method 100 of automatically writing test cases includes the following steps:

Step 101: The front-end developer develops the front-end of the website based on the UI component library of Vue and inputs requirements to the back-end server based on the front-end of the website;

Step 102: The back-end server calls the artificial intelligence program interface to output test cases according to the input requirements of the website front-end, where the artificial intelligence program interface is ChatGPT;

Step 103: The back-end server returns the test case to the front-end, and the front-end displays the test case.

Optionally, the method further includes: the front end responds to the developer's operation of registering and applying for the program interface key, and registers and applies for the program interface key.

Optionally, front-end developers develop the website front-end based on Vue's UI component library, including:

Front-end developers call the UI component library based on the program interface key to develop the website front-end.

Optionally, also includes: front-end creation and storage of blob data for test cases.

Specifically, ChatGPT can automatically generate test cases based on user input requirements, but the generated test cases are only in text format and need to be copied manually and have format modification issues. In order to solve this problem, we can combine the Python and Vue frameworks to realize the function of intelligently generating and visually displaying test cases. The specific implementation steps are as follows:

1. Download and install PyCharm Professional Edition, and install corresponding plug-ins, such as element and Vue plug-ins. Plug-ins are tools used to develop Vue.js applications.

1) The Element plug-in is a Vue.js component library that provides some basic UI components, such as form components, layout components, navigation components, etc. It can provide great convenience for developers to quickly create UI interfaces. The Element plug-in also uses PyCharm's development experience and supports functions such as auto-completion, code formatting, error checking, and refactoring.

2) The Vue plug-in is a plug-in provided by PyCharm Professional Edition that directly supports Vue.js. It can help developers write and debug Vue.js applications more easily, and provides support with powerful parameters and data analysis, while also providing high integration with JavaScript, CSS and HTML. The functions of the Vue plug-in include syntax and error checking, auto-completion, code folding, code formatting, debugging and refactoring, etc.

Use the `Element` and `Vue` plugins in PyCharm Professional Edition: Both plugins are tools for developing Vue.js applications, providing a better development experience during the development process.

2. When creating a new project, choose the Flask framework as the back-end framework. Flask can help developers create web applications, services, and APIs more easily.

Calling the `openai` API `openai` is an artificial intelligence API that can be used for text analysis and processing, such as natural language generation for generating test cases and other requirement descriptions. By calling the `openai` API, automated processing and optimization of test case generation from requirement text can be achieved.

3. Register on the ChatGPT official website and apply for API KEY, which is used to verify and identify operators using the API. (Only after the identification is successful, the OpenAI interface can be called normally in the 4 steps). API KEY can ensure the security and stability of the API service and avoid malicious attacks and abuse.

4. Use Python to write code, call the OpenAI interface, use the Vue framework to write the front-end page, and use Axios based on the Promise HTTP client for back-end data acquisition and operation to receive.

Design and develop website front-end: Use `Element` and `Vue` plug-ins to design and develop website front-end in PyCharm, which is used to enter requirements and view the display of test cases.

5. Use JavaScript to manipulate the content, structure and style of web pages, download the test case data generated by ChatGPT to the local, and use Blob objects to create and store Blob data. Through these operations, test cases can be automatically generated and stored in Markdown format, which is convenient for testers to modify and use.

Design and develop the server side: Use server-side programming languages such as Python and server frameworks (such as Flask, Django, etc.) to design and develop the server side and establish interfaces for interaction with the front-end. Process the input requirements by calling the `openai` API, and return the processing results to the front-end for display.

Deploy and test the website: Deploy the server-side program and front-end resources to the server, and conduct testing and verification to ensure the stability and reliability of the application in the formal environment.

Therefore, this application combines Python and Vue frameworks to automatically generate test cases generated by ChatGPT and save them in the form of files to improve the efficiency and accuracy of test case writing and provide testers with more convenient and efficient writing tool.
