Abstract :
Graphical user interfaces (GUIs) are critical components of software environment for pervasive computing and applications. A systemic solution called GUI testing architecture (GUITA) for automated testing oriented GUIs is proposed in this paper, which is built on the platform that integrating ATS and WinRunner¿ by a socket interface. By parsing configure file and loading GUI map successfully, it can invoke and accomplish the corresponding test case automatically. The solution is verified as an effective and feasible approach to GUI-oriented automated regression testing, which greatly improves the efficiency and profit over traditional manual testing.
