GUI testing for ANDROID

QuickTest Professional (QTP) or Visual Studio can now be used to automate test cases for Android based applications.

In version 3.0 of M-eux Test, Jamo Solutions released the first support for the Android mobile platform. Both the Android emulator as the real device are supported.

M-eux Test extends either QuickTest Professional or Visual Studio. The extension supports the recognition of the GUI objects on the Android mobile phone. All standard UI objects of the Android platform are supported and can be learned using the # 18learn-GUI# 19 functionality.

Android is a software stack for mobile devices that includes an operating system, middleware and key applications. Several big manufacturers have released this year Android based mobile phones and following to Gartner, Android will become the second mobile OS after Symbian.

Standard Edition

By introducing a standard edition of the tool, customers can purchase the core functionality to create test scripts against a mobile platform in either QuickTest Professional or Visual Studio. Advanced functionality like the local scheduler, multi-tool support, the WAN connector and multi-platform support are now part of the Professional edition.

More information on this topic can be found here.

Local test case scheduler

A local test case scheduler is introduced in version 3.0 of M-eux Test. The scheduler supports execution of QTP and VS test cases against the connected devices given a specific time and frequency of execution.


WAN Connector

Mobile applications might need to be verified in remote networks from different operators. Instead of being forced to create and run your test scripts locally in these networks, you can now connect remotely using the Wan Connector.

Database Checkpoints

Database base checkpoints for the MS-SQL Server mobile edition are now available in M-eux Test.

Quality Center Integration

A Quality Center extension is available so that test cases can be executed against the mobile device instead of against a PC.
Also the integration of the Visual Studio scripts into Quality Center is now a fact. Visual Studio scripts can be stored in the Quality Center repository and can be executed from Quality Center.
