[0031]figure 2 Shows a flowchart of a method 200 for testing application startup time according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method 200 is suitable for running on a computing device (such asfigure 1 Shown in the computing device).
[0032]Such asfigure 2 As shown, the method 200 starts at step S210, a main process (first main process) of the test method is started, and two sub-processes (a second sub-process and a third sub-process) are created through the main process.
[0033]In the subsequent step S220, one of the sub-processes (the second sub-process) starts one of the applications according to the application list, and records the current time as the first time in the process of starting the application.
[0034]According to an embodiment of the present invention, the application list includes multiple applications whose startup time is to be tested, which can be expressed in the form shown in Table 1. According to the application list, the second child process first obtains the first application, that is, application 1, sends the startup instruction of application 1, and records the current time as the first time in the startup process of application 1, and also records The name of the application.
[0035]Table 1
[0036] Serial number Application name 1 Application 1 2 Application 2 3 Application 3 …… ……
[0037]In the subsequent step S230, another child process (that is, the third child process) will monitor the window display event of the started application. The window display event occurs, and the user can see the display window of the application on the screen. After the application is started, the corresponding window display information is obtained and sent to the second child process. The window display information includes the application name and application process number associated with the application window display event, and the application window is monitored Show the time of the event (second time).
[0038]According to an embodiment of the present invention, the communication between the second sub-process and the third sub-process is implemented through a shared queue (that is, the first shared queue). The specific process is that the third sub-process displays the acquired application window display information Send to the first shared queue, and the second child process will read the data in the first shared queue and obtain the window display information corresponding to the application started by the second child process, which can be based on the recorded application name For acquiring, for example, if the application currently started by the second sub-process is application 1, the window display information associated with application 1 is acquired from the first shared queue.
[0039]After obtaining the window display information, the second sub-process proceeds to step S240. The second sub-process calculates the startup consumption of the currently started application according to the second time in the application window display information and the first time recorded in step S220. Time. Calculate the startup time of the application by calculating the difference between the second time and the first time. For example, the first time in the startup process of application 1 is 9:15:30 and 200 milliseconds, and the second time is 9 on the same day. 15 minutes 30 seconds and 700 milliseconds, the startup time of application 1 is 500 milliseconds, and the second child process records the startup time in the log file after calculating the startup time. That is, the startup time of application 1, 500 milliseconds is recorded to In the log file, the specific log file format can be formatted according to data requirements, which is not limited in the present invention.
[0040]After calculating the startup time of the current application, go to step S250 to obtain the next application to be tested according to the application list. For example, the currently tested application is application 1. Take Table 1 as an example. In the step, application 2 will be obtained for testing.
[0041]After the application 2 is obtained, step S220 is entered again to send the startup instruction of the application 2, and record the current time as the first time in the startup process of the application 2.
[0042]Then enter step S230, the third sub-process monitors the window display event of the application program, and writes window display information related to the window display event into the first shared queue.
[0043]According to an embodiment of the present invention, the currently launched application 2 fails to start due to a file error. In this step, the third child process cannot detect its window display event, and the second child process cannot start from the first The window display information corresponding to application 2 is obtained in the shared queue. After waiting for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds), the second child process directly records the application startup timeout, and records the application name and its startup timeout status in the log File.
[0044]Then enter step S250 to obtain the next application to be tested. According to Table 1, application 3 will be obtained, and application 3 will be started through step S220. According to an embodiment of the present invention, application 3 is installed, then The second sub-process directly records the uninstalled state of the application 3 in the log file, and proceeds to step S250 to continue to obtain the next application.
[0045]In step S250, when all the applications in the application list have been tested and the next application fails to be obtained, step S260 is entered. In step S260, the second sub-process sends the test completion information to the first main process.
[0046]According to an embodiment of the present invention, the communication between the second sub-process and the first main process is realized through a pipeline file, the second sub-process sends the test completion information to the first pipeline file, and the first main program starts from the first pipeline file. Get test completion information in.
[0047]When the first main program obtains the test completion information, it proceeds to step S270, ends the two sub-processes (the first sub-process and the second sub-process) created by it, and exits.
[0048]image 3 Shows a block diagram of a device 300 for testing application startup time according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The device 300 includes a first main process module 310, a second sub process module 320, and a third sub process module 330.
[0049]The first main process module 310 is the main process that runs the application startup time test method, and is used to create the second sub-process module 320 and the third sub-process module 330, and after receiving the application test sent by the second sub-process module 320 When the information is completed, the operation of the second sub-process module 320 and the third sub-process module 330 is ended and exited.
[0050]The second sub-process module 320 is adapted to start one of the applications according to the order of the applications in the application list, while recording that the current time is the first time in the application start-up process, and the third sub-process module 330 receives When the second time of the event is displayed in the application window, the startup time of the application is calculated according to the first time and the second time and recorded in the log file.
[0051]If the predetermined time period is exceeded, the application window display information is still received, and the name of the corresponding application and the startup timeout status are recorded in the log file.
[0052]When the application to be tested is an uninstalled program, record the application name and the uninstalled status in the log file.
[0053]The third sub-process module 330 is adapted to monitor window display events, and when a window display event is detected, obtain window display information, including the application name and application process number associated with the window display event, and the current time (ie, the application startup process At the second time), the window display information is sent to the second sub-process module, and the communication between the third sub-process module and the second sub-process module can be realized through a shared queue.
[0054]According to the application startup time test method of the present invention, the test is performed according to the window display event. The occurrence of the window display event marks the completion of the application startup, and the user can see the display window of the application on the screen, so start from the sending application Instruction to the occurrence of a window display event is the time it takes for the application to start. In the present invention, two sub-processes are used to obtain the designated time for sending the application start and the time when the window display event occurs, and calculate the application start time according to these two times. Application list, after one application test is completed, enter the test of the next application. Through the application list, the startup time of different applications is tested.
