Abstract

Serverless applications are based on Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) platforms where serverless functions interact with other cloud-specific services. The integration of these components is crucial for the application’s functionality and must be adequately tested. Testing criteria can help here by supporting developers in evaluating test suites and identifying missing test cases. This paper presents a framework for evaluating integration testing criteria in serverless applications by showing the processes needed for evaluating the criteria. The process defined is shown for some control and data flow criteria and applied to some serverless applications showing the feasibility of the approach.
