dc.description.abstractWeb mapping is the process of designing, implementing, generating and delivering maps on the World Wide Web. With increased ease in collecting geospatial data, web mapping applications are becoming ubiquitous. Software testing is done to ensure that applications are functioning as per expectations. Results from empirical studies showed that testing has been the least emphasized aspect of web mapping application development and little is known about it. This thesis presents results of an exploratory, longitudinal case study on testing of web mapping applications. It includes resu Its of a qualitative exploratory study to understand current practices and issues faced by developers. A unit testing framework for an open-source mapping library was developed and evaluated as per requirements gathered from the exploratory study. Lessons learned after a longitudinal experience in developing and testing a web mapping application are also discussed.
