Detailed ways

Embodiments of the present invention provide a service testing method and device, which are used to reduce losses caused by failure to find system problems due to differences between the testing environment and the actual production environment in the prior art, and improve the stability of service online.

The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, but not to limit the present invention, and in the case of no conflict, the present invention The embodiments in and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

Example 1

As shown in FIG. 2, it is a schematic diagram of the implementation process of the service testing method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, which may include the following steps:

S21. Run the transaction message to which the identification field is added in the actual production environment.

During specific implementation, the identification field is used to indicate whether the transaction packet is a test packet. Since the message format in the generation environment is generally in xml format or json format, in order to add the identification field to the original transaction message, it is necessary to modify the generated message protocol, for example, add <Testflag>1</Testflag>, or <Testflag>1</Testflag> Testflag, 1> field, after adding the above fields, assign value to the above identification field Testflag, such as Testflag=0 or Testflag=1, and the system can pre-define Testflag=1 as a test message, then Testflag=0 is a production message, Or define Testflag=0 as a test message; Testflag=1 as a production message. Users can define themselves according to the actual production environment, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention. For the convenience of description, the embodiment of the present invention takes Testflag=1 as a test packet and Testflag=0 as a production packet as an example for description.

S22. According to the identification field, determine whether the transaction message to which the identification field is added is a test message, and if so, execute step S23; otherwise, execute step S24.

According to Testflag=1 defined in step S21, it is a test message. For illustration, if it is determined that the identification field Testflag=1 added to the transaction message is determined, the transaction message is determined to be a test message, and then step S23 is executed; if If it is judged that the flag field Testflag added to the transaction message is equal to 0, it is determined that the transaction message is a production message, and step S24 is executed.

S23. Test each test service according to a preset test rule.

During the specific implementation, since there are many test services in the production environment, the processing logic of the test services is also different accordingly. For example, the service of querying telephone bills, recharging payment services, querying package services, etc., the processing procedures included in each test service are also very different. , but each test service has its own processing logic. For example, to query the call charge service, take dialing 10086 to query the call charge balance as an example. First, you need to know the phone number of the call charge service to be queried; then call the phone according to the phone number. The bill of the number; finally, the bill is sent to the user in the form of a text message for the user's reference. Therefore, when the service test is performed on the test packet, it is necessary to transfer the test packet to each process included in the test service until the test packet is transferred to the last process of the test service, indicating that the service test is completed. Whether the test business passes the test requires further judgment.

S24. Process the production message according to the normal business processing logic.

During specific implementation, if it is detected that the identification field Testflag=0 carried in the transaction message, it means that the transaction message is a production message, that is, a transaction message initiated by the user, and the production message flow is transferred to the normal business processing flow , to process the generated messages initiated by the user, such as recharging and payment, inquiring about phone bills, and changing packages.

In the service testing method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, in order to reduce the difference between the test environment and the actual production environment to zero, it is not necessary to provide another test environment, and the test packets are directly tested in the actual production environment, but the actual production environment There are also transaction messages initiated by users. Therefore, in order to distinguish the transaction messages in the actual production environment, the transaction message with the added identification field is run in the actual production environment, and the identification field is used to indicate the transaction message. Whether it is a test message; if it is determined according to the identification field that the transaction message is a test message, then each test service is tested according to the preset test rules, which on the one hand realizes the test message in the actual production environment. Carrying out various service tests improves the accuracy and stability of each test service after it goes online; on the other hand, when the service test is performed on test packets, it will not affect the processing of transaction packets initiated by users in the actual production environment.

Embodiment 2

According to the existing business test process, after the business test is completed, according to the recorded test results, after the test process is evaluated as normal, it will be launched in the actual production environment, which affects the efficiency of business online. In view of this, the second embodiment of the present invention provides a service online method, and the online result is obtained after the test is completed, and there is no need to release the online service again, so as to improve the service online efficiency. Specifically, when using the service testing method provided in the first embodiment to test the transaction message, the online process provided in FIG. 3 is also included:

S31. For each test service tested in the actual production environment, record the test result information of the test service.

In specific implementation, when each test service is tested in step S23 according to the preset test rule in the first embodiment, the test packets can be processed according to the type of the test service, wherein the test service types are roughly divided into two categories : Query business and processing business:

(1) If it is detected that the test service is a query type service, the test packet is processed according to the query type service processing logic, and is marked and timestamped.

In specific implementation, the query type services may be services such as toll query, traffic query, package query, etc. The embodiment of the present invention is described by taking the query fee as an example. When the test service to which the test packet flows is the query fee service, the query The call charge business processing logic processes the test packets, such as performing the call charge query operation, obtaining other information such as the current call charge balance, and presenting other information such as the call charge balance on the interface, indicating that the call charge service query is successful, and then in the list Mark the test business process flow test as successful, otherwise the test fails. In addition, the mark can be marked with "√" to represent the success of the test service, "×" to represent the failure of the test service, and time stamp processing to record the time required to complete the processing flow of the call charge service this time.

(2) If it is detected that the test service is a processing service, marking and time stamping are performed.

During specific implementation, the processing services may include services such as package replacement, recharge payment, and point exchange; taking recharge payment as an example for illustration, when it is detected that the test packet flow is transferred to the recharge payment service, the test process will not actually execute the payment of call charges Or traffic charges, you only need to check whether the test packet can successfully execute each process of the recharge and payment service. If it can be successfully executed, mark the test service processing process test success in the list, otherwise, the test fails. In addition, the mark can be marked with "√" to represent the success of the test service, and "X" to represent the failure of the test service. In addition, timestamp processing is also required to record the time required to complete the recharge payment processing process.

According to step S23 in the first embodiment, the time stamp processing performed after each test service is tested according to the preset test rule is compared with the average time for processing the production packet by the normal service processing logic. For example, for the query call charge service, If the time required for the test packet to execute each process of querying the call charge service is 2 seconds, and the time required for the normal service to process the call charge service initiated by the user is 5 seconds, and if the list in step S23 is marked as "√", then Indicates that the test business has reached the online standard, and the test result information of the test business is recorded as the test passed; the flow is transferred to other test businesses, and the completion of executing the business process in the normal business processing logic according to its mark and timestamp in the list Compare the time, if the time of executing the test business process is less than or equal to the completion time of executing the business process in the normal business processing logic, record the test result information of each test business.

S32, according to the test result information, determine whether the test service meets the online standard, if yes, go to step S33; otherwise, go to step S34.

During specific implementation, according to the test result information of each test service recorded in step S31, if the test result information of any test service is the test pass, then step S33 is executed; maintenance personnel for maintenance.

S33, the test service is launched.

S34. The test service fails to go online.

In the service online method provided in the second embodiment of the present invention, for each test service tested in the actual production environment, the test result information of the test service is recorded, and if it is determined according to the test result information that the test service meets the online standard, Then, the test service is launched, and each service test is performed on the test packets in the actual production environment. When each service reaches the online standard, the test service can be launched, which improves the stability of service online.
