Abstract
Web applications are critical assets of our society and thus assuring their quality is of undeniable importance. Despite the advances in software testing, the ever-increasing technological complexity of these applications makes it difficult to prevent errors.
In this work, we provide a thorough description of the three open problems hindering web test automation: fragility problem, strong coupling and low cohesion problem, and incompleteness problem. We conjecture that a major breakthrough in ...
