摘要

图形用户界面(GUI)已成为当前软件的重要组成部分。但由于状态数量多，事件间交互复杂，传统的测试方法难以对GUI进行测试。本文提出了一种用于GUI建模的事件交互结构和生成GUI交互测试用例的算法。在此结构中，事件之间的交互关系侧重于事件处理程序的共享变量或数据或交换消息。然后通过分析事件的读写操作或事件之间的消息收发，生成GUI交互测试用例。实验表明，在保证基于事件的覆盖率的条件下，我们的方法生成的有效GUI交互测试用例的数量大约是排列组合方法生成的测试用例数量的10%。

An event interaction structure for GUI test case generation

Graphical User Interface (GUI) has become an important part of current software. But it is difficult for conventional test methods to test GUI due to the large number of states and the complexity among the events interaction. This paper presents an event interaction structure to model GUI and an algorithm to generate GUI interactive test cases. In this structure, the interaction relationships among events focus on the sharing variables or data or exchange messages of the event-handlers. Then the GUI interactive test cases are generated by analyzing the reading or writing operations of events or sending and receiving messages between events. Experiment shows that, under the condition of assuring event-based coverage rate, the number of effective GUI interactive test cases generated by our method is about 10 percent of the number of test cases generated by permutation and combination method.
