Description

An Android-based automated testing method

technical field

The invention relates to a testing method, in particular to an Android-based automated testing method.

Background technique

When traditional mobile phones perform various automated tests, they use computers for testing, and manual monitoring is required throughout the process. When testing various test programs, after testing a program, you need to input the next program to be tested, which takes a long time. The efficiency is low and the cost is high.

Contents of the invention

The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, and provide an Android-based automated testing method, which is simple and convenient to operate, and integrates various automated tests, and only needs a mobile phone to perform automated testing, with high efficiency.

In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted in the present invention is an Android-based automated testing method, the steps are as follows:

Step 1. Call various test programs and internal shell commands of Android;

Step 2, coding various test programs and internal shell commands;

Step 3. After coding, a series of test sequences that can be called randomly are formed, and corresponding test events are generated;

Step 4. After the code is written, reserve storage space for writing the extended interface program;

Step 5, compiling the code through the Linux compilation environment to form an executable file;

Step 6, the executable file invokes the monkey random test command of Android during the test to perform random tests on various test programs.

The various test programs described in the above steps 1 and 2 include software automated test programs, file management automated test programs, field automated test programs, and hardware automated test programs, etc.; the executable file described in the above step 5 is APK (Abbreviation for Android Package) format file.

Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: first, by integrating the Android internal shell instruction principle to call the monkey method of android, realize the artificial operation through equipment simulation on the mobile phone side, and form a reliable software stability testing system, Coding various test programs, and testing by calling each test program during the test, the test is simple and convenient, and the test efficiency is improved; second, the operation interface is visualized, no need for a PC, and only an Android phone can be used anytime, anywhere Test; third, there is an expansion interface reserved during coding, and other test programs can be added as needed, and the test program is coded into the test program for testing, which has good scalability; fourth, mobile phones adapted to the android system have good compatibility.

Detailed ways

The gist of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, provide a kind of automatic testing method based on Android, call the monkey method of Android by integrating the shell command principle inside Android, realize the manual operation through equipment simulation on the mobile phone side, form reliable software Stability testing system. Coding various test programs, including software automation test programs, file management automation test programs and outfield automation test programs, etc., the coded programs can randomly call various test programs and perform automated tests to form an automated test system. All kinds of test programs are concentrated in one framework, and various programs can be called at any time for automated testing. Compile the written code through the compilation environment on linux to form an executable file installation package that can be installed on the mobile phone, so that anyone only needs to install the executable file on the mobile phone and perform various tests anytime and anywhere according to the instructions .

The following will describe in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings in conjunction with the embodiments, so as to further explain the technical features and advantages of the present invention.

Software flowchart of the present invention as shown in Figure 1, a kind of automated test method based on Android, the steps are as follows:

Step 1. Call various test programs and internal shell commands of Android;

Step 2, coding various test programs and internal shell commands;

Step 3. After coding, a series of test sequences that can be called randomly are formed, and corresponding test events are generated;

Step 4. After the code is written, reserve storage space for writing the extended interface program;

Step 5, compiling the code through the Linux compilation environment to form an executable file;

Step 6, the executable file invokes the monkey random test command of Android during the test to perform random tests on various test programs.

The various test programs described in the above steps 1 and 2 include software automated test programs, file management automated test programs, field automated test programs, and hardware automated test programs, etc.; the executable file described in the above step 5 is APK format file.

Executing automated tests requires a series of parameters, such as,

(1) Various test program module codes: the corresponding codes correspond to the corresponding modules, and test users can choose the modules they think need to be tested;

(2) Departure index: that is, SEED. Different SEEDs generate different random test sequence samples. The random events executed by the same SEED are the same, and the problem can be reproduced through the same SEED;

(3) Test delay: the interval between every two random actions, in milliseconds, if there is no delay or very small, keydipatchtimeout may cause the process to terminate;

(4) Number of tests: the number of clicks that generate random tests;

(5) Log file: Click to view the log to view the log generated by the problem of the mobile phone after the test. The log name is named after "package name" + "date" + "time".txt.

During use, install the executable file on the Android mobile phone, open the executable file, and the automated test directory will appear. The directory contains various test names, such as software automated testing, file management automated testing, field automated testing and others Test, for the convenience of users, add the usage version description in the directory. After the user clicks the test item in the test directory, he enters the corresponding test program for testing, and the test result will form a log log file, and the test result will be displayed on the screen of the mobile phone.

Although the present invention has made a clear and complete description of how to realize the automated testing method based on Android through specific examples, the present invention is not limited to the described embodiment, it is possible to achieve the same purpose by simply changing the program and all include In the present invention.
