I am looking to create a test architecture for a project. The application is created Java, there is no UI to this application and we need to do some regression testing of the end to end functionality.
Some of the scenarios that can be tested are compare database fields.
Submit an XML and validate the values of the output XML file etc.
I know that this can be done using PERL scripts, but I was wondering if they can be done using any tool because we don't have enough time to invest in scripting for the testing.
