Test Case Execution Explanation:

1. Feature: Describes the functionality being tested (e.g., service registration, service discovery, etc.).

2. Test Case: Provides a specific test scenario that checks the functionality.

3. Steps to Execute Test Case: Lists the exact steps to be taken in order to execute the test case.

4. Expected Output: Defines the expected outcome from executing the test case.

5. Actual Output: Describes what actually happened when the test was executed. This field is filled in during testing.

6. Status: Indicates whether the test passed or failed. Typically, this will be filled out during testing and can be marked as:

o Pass: If the system behaves as expected.

7. More Information: Additional comments or notes that may be relevant (e.g., known issues, test environment specifics).
 Result analysis (EXAMPLE)

The experimental results of the proposed Hybrid framework for web services discovery are shown in Figure 1. Based on the user's query, it
recommends services with minimal response time and high ratings to the user.
