Abstract

Java ME (Java micro edition) technology is being widely used in the mobile computing field. Testing of Java ME software is an important and challenging task. This paper reviews the most popular Java ME testing frameworks, i.e. JMUnit, J2MEUnit and Mobile JUnit, and addresses their defects. And then the JT Harness/ME Framework is discussed and studied, which is somewhat currently ignored but is more effective. Based on the analyses, a design scheme of a testing system that integrates the JT Harness/ME framework into the NetBeans platform is proposed. Testing results show this method leverages the advantages of both the JT Harness/ME Framework and NetBeans, and offers a convenient and flexible testing approach with the capability of powerful test management.
