摘　　要：REST API已经成为访问和使用云服务、Web、移动应用程序的重要途径,如何对这些API进行自动化测试以保证服务的安全性和可靠性是亟待解决的问题。目前虽然关于REST API自动化测试的研究成果众多,但仍缺少对测试技术全面的分析和总结。梳理了该领域近10年的代表性成果,首先总结了REST API自动化测试的发展历程;然后结合REST API自动化测试特征,提炼了测试的通用流程;接着分别从预处理、测试用例生成、测试用例执行与监测、结果分析四个环节阐述现有成果的技术特征,对比分析其优缺点;最后论述当前研究存在的不足,讨论可能的解决思路,展望了下一步研究方向。The REST API has become an important way to access and use cloud services,Web,and mobile applications.It is urgent to solve the problem of how to carry out automated testing on these APIs to ensure the security and reliability of ser-vices.Although there are numerous research results on REST API automation testing,there is still a lack of comprehensive analysis and summarization of testing techniques.This paper firstly summarized the development history of REST API automation testing,then refined the general process of testing by combining the features of REST API automation testing.Next,this paper elaborated the technical features of existing achievements from four aspects:pre-processing,test case generation,test case execution and monitoring,and result analysis,and compared and analyzed their advantages and disadvantages.Finally,it discussed the shortcomings of the current research,proposed possible solutions,and explored the next research direction.
