An automated regression testing intermediary configured to accept a first set of automated test instructions from an application testing tool. A data structure comprising predefined fields is configured so when a test instruction is received from the application testing tool, a command will be used to identify at least one field of the data structure that will be populated with a parameter test instruction. A library of generic target automated test instructions is provided. Each generic test instruction has a form and format different from the received test instruction. The intermediary is configured to select generic target automated test instructions from the library and populate selected generic target automated test instructions with parameters obtained from the data structure such that the resulting created target-specific automated test instructions can be used to regression test the application under test.
