Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

End-to-end (E2E) testing is essential for ensuring web application quality. However, manual test creation is time-consuming, and current test generation techniques produce incoherent tests. In this paper, we present Autoe2e,a novel approach that leverages Large Language Models (LLMs) to automate the generation of semantically meaningful feature-driven E2E test cases for web applications. Autoe2eintelligently infers potential features within a web application and translates them into executable test scenarios. Furthermore, we address a critical gap in the research community by introducing E2EBENCH, a new benchmark for automatically assessing the feature coverage of E2E test suites. Our evaluation on E2EBENCH demonstrates that Autoe2eachieves an average feature coverage of 79%, outperforming the best baseline by 558 %, highlighting its effectiveness in generating high-quality, comprehensive test cases.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
