Cloud high quality API (Application Programming Interface) testing is essential for supporting the API economy. Autotest is a random test generator that addresses this need. It reads the API specification and deduces a model used in the test generation. This paper describes Autotest. It also address the topic of API specification pitfalls which Autotest may reveal when reading the specification. A best practice is to add an appropriate test to the regression once a problem is revealed and solved. How to do that in the context of Autotest's random test generation is covered.

翻译：高云质量 API (应用编程界面) 测试是支持 API 经济的关键。 自动测试是一个随机测试生成器, 满足这一需求。 它读取 API 规格, 并推断出在测试生成中使用的模型。 本文描述 AutoTest 。 本文还涉及 API 规格的陷阱, 自动测试在阅读规格时可能暴露出来。 最佳做法是, 一旦发现并解决了问题, 在回归中添加一个适当的测试。 如何在自动测试的随机生成中做到这一点 。
