Study And Implementation Of Mobile Phone Automatic Software Testing

Software testing is an important approach to ensure software quality, it can be basically divided into Manual Testing and Automatic Testing. Automatic software testing technology is able to accomplish certain testing types which are hard or cannot be implemented manually. Automatic software testing tools are drawing more and more attention as they have become a key technical approach to ensure software quality and reliability.Mobile phone industry has developed rapidly in recent years, users have increasing high demands on mobile phone functions, performance and stability, and this has brought higher requirement on software testing against mobile phones. Traditional mobile phone software testing method is mainly by manual, however with the shortening of mobile phone software development cycle and the increasing mobile phone software system complexity, pure manual testing is hard to ensure software quality in limited time. Therefore, some large mobile phone manufacturers have developed their own automatic software testing tools, and some professional test tool developing companies also devote themselves to the development of automatic testing tools.Through analyzing and comparing the popular automation testing systems, their defects are summarized and the cause is located from designing. This paper would provide an improved solution of mobile phone software automatic testing system. The improvement is implemented with below aspects:mobile phone control method, script design and test result analysis.The improved system utilizes software approach to control mobile phones, which simplifies hardware requirement and reduces the difficulty of system setup. Test scripts were designed with keywords driven and Object-Oriented technology. It makes logical script structured and also with strong flexibility and expansibility. Structured files are used for storing and evaluating testing result which can make the result analysis more efficient, reduce the human resource involvement.Through validating in real work, the improved automatic test system can bring higher efficiency.
