Abstract:
The wide diffusion in the use of mobile devices has brought the need to improve the process of verification and validation in mobile applications. The usual way of interaction between these apps and users is through device interface. For context-aware mobile applications, the number of interactions that a user can perform is much larger if compared to common applications. Thus, manual testing execution turns out to be an exhaustive and error-prone activity. The main contribution of this work is to propose the creation of new functions in Sikuli tool to automate tests for context-aware mobile application developed to the Windows Phone platform in order to develop reliable applications using an effective test strategy.
