Design And Development Of The Mobile Phone Software Automatic Test System

Software test plays a key role in ensuring and improving the quality of software. Software test may be classified into Black-Box Test and White-Box Test.A lot of repeated work results in low efficiency in the process of software test,especially Black-Box test,Such as stress testing,performance testing,Software regression testing,etc.However,the test does not verify reproducibility,but also can not guarantee the quality of software.Therefore,all kinds of test tools are introduced into the process of software test,which can enhance the efficiency.So the theory of software auto-test bring out.Study and development of software auto-test tool becomes more and more popular.Mobile phone is an embedded system.Mobile software test is something different from normal PC software test,but still some common characters exist between them.This paper firstly introduces the conception and status quo and the development of mobile software auto-test in recent years,summarizing the current situation.Then Mobile software auto-test system is proposed,including a variety of mobile platforms,the means of communication compatibility and improving the random testing algorithm.In addition,we thoroughly analyze the proposal,design and development functions:auto-record the action script,play back the script that it was auto-recorded or written by test engineer,random test,simulate some Mobile Function,and error process.At last the software is already used in the development of Lenovo Mobile R&D department and quality department by a large number of trials (including functional testing,performance testing,stress testing,etc.).The software's usefulness and scalability have been confirmed by developers and testers.
