Abstract

The invention discloses a UI (User Interface) testing method, and belongs to the field of software testing. The method comprises the following steps of: parsing a first description file to obtain at least one test step and an expected test result of a test case, parsing a second description file to obtain a class file corresponding to a test operation in each test step, and for each test step, testing a target UI control in a tested program according to the class file; and according to whether the output result of an application program is the same as the expected test result, obtaining the test result of the test case. The problems in the relevant technologies that a user needs to own certain programing bases to compile a test script and the test script can not be reused are solved. A test engineer only needs to use a natural language to describe the test case in the first description file and then can automatically finish a test according to the second description file. The whole testing method is simple and efficient, and the second description file can be reused.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of software testing, in particular to a UI testing method and device. Background technique [0002] UI (User Interface, user interface) testing is a technique for testing UI control elements on an application. For example, click each UI control element on the user interface to detect whether the output results of the application under test meet the expected test results. [0003] Taking UI testing of application programs on smartphones as an example, a test method in the prior art is as follows: test engineers learn to use automated testing tools, test engineers construct test cases for the application program to be tested, and according to the test case Write test scripts with automated testing tools, and then run the test scripts and the program under test on the smart terminal to obtain test results. For example, a test case engineer writes a test case as "click the button A on the first...
