Mobile phone application testing method based on mobile phone interface control elements

Abstract

The invention provides a mobile phone application testing method based on mobile phone interface control elements. The method comprises the steps that a client program acquires the description information of all the control elements on a mobile phone interface, wherein the information includes ID, text, element size, element position and whether a control is clickable; a unique identification is generated for each control by means of the information; for each control, the unique identification and an operation instruction aiming at the control are sent to a mobile phone app, and then corresponding operation is conducted on the control by the mobile phone app. According to the method, each control is provided with a unique identification to be recognized, the unique identification of each control is unchanged on different mobile phones with different resolutions, a test case does not need to be rewritten, workload is small, the readability of the case is high, only a small part of system resources is occupied, and testing time is short.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of mobile phone testing, in particular to a mobile phone application testing method based on mobile phone interface control elements. Background technique [0002] The current testing method for mobile phone applications is to manipulate the elements on the mobile phone interface based on coordinates. The test is aimed at the entire screen. For example, when a button is clicked, the coordinate position of the button needs to be input. [0003] However, the use of the coordinate method has the following disadvantages: [0004] 1. When using the coordinate system, the size and position of the same button in the same application are different on mobile phones with different resolutions. When testing the same application on different mobile phones, the coordinates of the operation need to be recalculated, and the workload of writing test cases is heavy . [0005] 2. When using the coordinate system, when writing test ca...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] 1. When using the coordinate system, the size and position of the same button in the same application are different on mobile phones with different resolutions. When testing the same application on different mobile phones, the coordinates of the operation need to be recalculated, and the workload of writing test cases is heavy

[0005] 2. When using the coordinate system, write test cases, controls are identified by coordinates, and the readability of the test cases is poor

[0006] In order to solve the adaptation problem of mobile phones with different resolutions and to reduce the workload of use case writers, when using the coordinate system, the position of the control is calculated by comparing pictures. Although this method can be used on mobile phones with different resolutions Rewrite the test case, but before performing the operation, you must compare the pictures, occupying computing resources and consuming test time
