Abstract

A computer-implemented method comprising: obtaining a description of a test suite which comprises a plurality of tests, wherein each test of the test suite is described by values of functional attributes, wherein at least a portion of the functional attributes are setup-related attributes, wherein a combination of values of the setup-relates attributes potentially indicate a setup activity to be performed prior to executing the test to set up a test environment for the test. Identifying, based on the description of the test suite, a setup activity that is associated with two or more tests, wherein the setup activity is configured to set up a component of the test environment, wherein the identifying is performed by a processor. Providing a first instruction to perform the setup activity prior to executing a first test of the two or more tests. And, providing a second instruction to reuse the component of the test environment when executing additional tests of the two or more tests, whereby avoiding performing duplicate setup activities.
