Model-based Automated GUI Testing For Android Web Application Frameworks

Abstract

The mobile phones today have become a vital part of everyone's life. Since the very first mobile phone appeared in the 80s until launching of the smartphones with high resolution display touch screen that enable multi-touch gestures. However, in the perspective of software or applications, though there are over a hundred thousand applications available to download but for the consideration of openness, user control, and customizability due to the fact that Android powers hundreds of devices whereas the users can experiment and customize their phone as they need. The aim is to study and improve the manual testing approaches by adapting the automated testing framework based on Model-based testing approach and applied with the Heidelberg Mobil International GmbH web-application on Android browser, and then the results will display the differences in time and effort of test executed and productivity between manual testing and automated testing
