Title
Systematic Exploration of Android Apps' Events for Automated Testing.
Abstract
The popularity of mobile devices is ever increasing which led to rapid increase in the development of mobile applications. GUI testing has been an effective means of validating Android apps. However, it still suffers a strong challenge about how to explore event sequence in the GUIs. This paper proposes a hybrid approach for systematic exploration of mobile apps which exploit the capabilities of both static and dynamic approaches while trying to improve app's state exploration. Our approach is based static analysis on app's bytecode to extract events supported by an app. The generated events are used to dynamically explore an app at run-time. The experimental results show that our approach can explore significant number of app's state for the generation of high quality test case.
