Abstract

The invention discloses a fuzzy testing method and system for Android applications. The method comprises the following steps that A, a filter of each active component is declared in a configuration file of an application in advance; B, the fuzzy testing technology is used for performing fuzzy variation on input external data so as to generate testing case data; C, the testing case data is sent to the active component of the application, and then the operational process of the application is dynamically monitored through a virtual machine layer and a native layer. According to the method and system, related codes of the configuration file of the application are modified on the basis of Android source data, obtained external data can be processed correctly by each active component of the application, then, the fuzzy testing technology is used for performing fuzzy variation, testing case data is generated, and finally the virtual machine layer and the Native layer are dynamically monitored. In the testing process, no manual intervention is needed, and the automatic input testing of the external data of the application can be efficiently achieved.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of software automated testing, in particular to a method and system for fuzzy testing of Android applications. Background technique [0002] At present, automated testing of Android applications is mainly focused on testing the application interface operation functions, that is, testing the user's action input. However, the existing test method ignores the test of another input of the user—external data input. External data input refers to the external data declared by the Android application that can be processed in the application. The Android system provides a set of mechanisms to facilitate applications to receive external data input. External data input, as an uncontrollable external input, often triggers defects in the application software, so it is necessary to test it to further explore the vulnerabilities of the application. [0003] Therefore, the existing technology needs to be improved and developed. Summary ...
