摘要：
This paper presents a technique for test-driven development of GUI-based applications, as well as a pilot evaluation. In ourapproach, user interface prototypes are created in such a way as to allow capture/replay tools to record interactions with them. These recordings can then be replayed on the actual GUI as it is being developed in a test-driven fashion. Thepilot evaluation found that developers integrated GUI tests, based on user interface prototypes,into their development process and used them as a way to determine when a feature is actually complete. Study participants felt that TDD of GUI based applications is useful.
