Description

Apparatus and method for verifying browser stability of mobile communication terminal {APPARATUS AND METHOD OF VERIFYING RELIABILITY OF MOBILE BROWSER}

The present invention relates to an apparatus for verifying the stability of a full browser mounted on a mobile communication terminal.

The mobile communication terminal uses a proprietary protocol (WAP), which is significantly reduced compared to a normal standard when connecting to the Internet because the resolution and input method of the display unit are very limited as well as the performance of the hardware as compared to the communication PC environment. Therefore, it was not easy for a mobile communication terminal to directly access a general web page.

Meanwhile, the full browser refers to a browser for a mobile communication terminal that can display web pages on the Internet as they are on a PC.

Strictly speaking, however, processing is not the same as that of a PC browser, and some components such as ActiveX, Flash, and script are selectively processed or displayed without being displayed.

In other words, it does not process all html source code like a browser in a PC environment, but processes only those that can be processed among the composition of the web page by creating a socket and accessing the generated web page, and displaying it on the screen of the mobile communication terminal. Make it visible through.

On the other hand, although web pages are transmitted through the same http protocol and are written according to the html standard, unfortunately, many web pages include various components to provide various functions. For example, components such as ActiveX, Flash movies, JavaScript or VB scripts, ASP or PHP.

If the web page consists of only images and text, it is not difficult for the full browser of the mobile terminal to directly read the html source code, and the stability of the full browser will not occur.

However, many web pages may even contain a variety of components, such as ASP or PHP, JavaScript or VB scripts, which are not even standardized, and are sometimes very expensive or inherent in mobile terminals. These include unprocessable scripts or ActiveX controls that aren't needed because they're not PC-based. Therefore, the full browser filters and processes the components of the web pages through appropriate criteria.

After all, the full browser is specialized in view of the hardware resource limitations of the mobile communication terminal and the difference in the connection method through the mobile communication network. Therefore, the full browser performs a lot of exception processing when the web page is processed. Stability issues also often arise. Every time a change in hardware specifications or introduction of new technology on the web is required, it is necessary to secure stability through numerous tests and debugging. This is a very difficult problem because there are mobile communication terminals with various platforms unlike PCs.

Therefore, in the full browser mounted on the mobile communication terminal, it is very important to promptly verify the stability and immediately debug.

Disclosure of Invention The present invention has been made to solve the above problems of the prior art, and an object of the present invention is to provide a verification apparatus and method for easily verifying the stability of a full browser of a mobile communication terminal.

The present invention has been made to solve the above problems of the prior art, the browser stability verification device of the mobile communication terminal of the present invention is a PC-based full browser running in a PC environment; A PC side storage unit for storing a plurality of web page addresses; A PC emulator that controls the full browser to access web pages stored in the PC storage unit and collects error information when an error occurs during processing; A debugger for debugging a full browser; And

A terminal full browser displaying a web page; A terminal storage unit for storing a plurality of web page addresses; And a terminal emulator for controlling the terminal full browser to access web pages stored in the terminal storage unit, and collecting error information when an error occurs during processing. .

On the other hand, the browser stability verification method of the mobile communication terminal of the present invention comprises the steps of accessing the url of a plurality of pre-stored web pages through a full browser running in a PC environment PC-based verification device;

Accessing the next web page if an error does not occur when the PC-based verification apparatus accesses a web page, collecting error information and accessing the next web page if an error occurs;

Displaying, by the PC-based verification device, the collected error information on the screen when access and processing of all pre-stored web pages are completed;

Accessing, by the terminal verification apparatus, urls of a plurality of previously stored web pages through a full browser;

Accessing the next web page if an error does not occur when the terminal-based verification apparatus accesses a web page, collecting error information and accessing the next web page if an error occurs; And

And displaying, on the screen, the collected error information when the terminal-based verification apparatus ends access and processing of all the stored web pages.

According to the present invention as described above, only by specifying a plurality of web pages to be tested, first, a full browser stability test is automatically performed in a PC environment that can be quickly verified, and then the stability test is performed again at the terminal stage. The procedure itself is not only easy, but also effective.

In addition, there is an excellent effect of ensuring high reliability without compromising the speed of the verification process by recapturing the error of the full browser that has not been found in the PC environment.

Hereinafter, a configuration of a browser stability verification apparatus for a mobile communication terminal according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a functional block diagram showing the configuration of a browser stability verification apparatus for a mobile communication terminal according to the present invention.

According to Figure 1, the browser stability verification device of the mobile communication terminal according to the present invention comprises a PC-based verification device 100 and the terminal board verification device 200, wherein the PC-based verification device 100 is wired or wireless LAN to the Internet It is implemented as a computer that is directly connected, and is provided with a PC-based full browser 110, a PC-side storage unit 120, a PC emulator 130, a debugger 140.

The PC-based full browser 110 ported the full browser 230 driven by the mobile communication terminal to be operated in the PC environment, and has the functional restrictions of the full browser 230 as it is. In other words, only the terminal full browser 230 and the platform being driven are implemented to be functionally identical except there is a difference between a mobile communication terminal and a PC.

The PC side storage unit 120 stores a plurality of web page addresses. The urls of web pages to verify stability are stored in advance. The web pages with various components are selected and the urls of the corresponding web pages are obtained and stored as a test target.

Meanwhile, the PC emulator 130 controls the PC-based full browser 110 to access a plurality of web page urls pre-stored in the PC-side storage unit 120. On the other hand, if the PC-based full browser 110 accesses a specific web page url and an error occurs while processing the components included in the html source and the script or other web page, the PC emulator 130 displays the corresponding web page. The processing of the PC-based full browser 110 is stopped and error information is collected.

In this case, the error information includes not only the url of the web page where the error occurred, but also a location (line number in the html source code) where the error occurred within the web page, and a target where the error occurred (script or flash). It may contain the content of the error, such as the cause of the error (if the error occurred in the script, what syntax it was in).

When the PC emulator 130 accesses any one web page through the PC-based full browser 110 and the processing of the corresponding page is all completed or the processing is stopped due to an error, the PC emulator 130 transmits to the PC-side storage unit 120. By accessing to other stored web pages, all web pages stored in the PC-side storage unit 120 are sequentially accessed.

In the process, the error information is collected every time an error occurs, and when the connection to all web pages is terminated, the error information is displayed to show at a glance which cause occurred at which web page url.

In this case, the url and the error content of the web page in which the error occurs may be simply displayed, but by displaying the contents in order of the error and the cause, the stability of the terminal full browser 210 is intuitive. You will be able to recognize it. (Of course, it means exactly where the problem part of the stability of the PC-based full browser 110, but because the PC-based full browser 110 itself ported the terminal full browser 210 to the PC platform After all, the same meaning.)

Meanwhile, after collecting the error information, the debugger 140 is used to debug the full browser itself to solve the cause of the error. The terminal full browser 210 debugged as described above is mounted in the terminal verification apparatus 200.

On the other hand, the terminal verification apparatus 200 is implemented as a mobile communication terminal for accessing the Internet through a wireless LAN according to the mobile communication network or wifi standard, the terminal full browser 210, the terminal storage unit 220 and the terminal emulator 230 It is provided.

The terminal full browser 210 accesses a web page, and performs a function of processing and displaying the web page on the screen. It is the same as the full browser according to the prior art, and of course has the hardware resource limitation of the mobile communication terminal as it is.

The terminal storage unit 220 stores a plurality of web page addresses. Like the PC-side storage unit 120 stores the url of the web page to verify the stability in advance, to select the web page having a variety of components evenly to obtain the url of the corresponding web page, and to store as a test target.

In this case, the same web page urls as those stored in the PC-side storage unit 120 may be stored, but preferably, the PC-based verification apparatus 100 again verifies the web pages in which no error occurred. Only the urls of web pages that did not generate an error from the base verification apparatus 100 may be received and stored.

The terminal emulator 230 may be implemented as an application based on the WIPI platform. The terminal emulator 230 controls the terminal full browser 210 to access a plurality of web page urls previously stored in the terminal storage unit 220.

Meanwhile, if an error occurs while the terminal full browser 210 accesses a specific web page url and processes components included in an html source and a script or other web page, the terminal full browser 210 processes the corresponding web page. Stop and collect error information.

The terminal emulator 230 forcibly terminates processing of a corresponding web page when an error occurs in the terminal full browser 210. The premise system stops one process in comparison to a PC environment in which multitasking is supported and the operating system is stable. This is even more important because this locking key-lock phenomenon can occur.

On the other hand, the terminal emulator 230, when an error occurs in the terminal full browser 210, along with the url of the web page where the error occurred, the location where the error occurred (line number in the html source code) within the web page, the target where the error occurred (Script or flash). It may contain the content of the error, such as the cause of the error (if the error occurred in the script, what syntax it was in).

When the access to all the web pages stored in the terminal storage unit 220 is completed, the terminal emulator 230 displays the collected error information on the screen of the terminal verification apparatus 200.

At this time, the url and the error content of the web page in which the error occurred may be displayed, but by sorting the contents of the error and the cause in order, the stability of the full browser 210 may be intuitive. You will be able to recognize it.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings a method for verifying the stability of the full browser 210 in the browser stability verification apparatus of the mobile communication terminal having the above configuration will be described in detail.

2 is a flowchart showing in time series a method of verifying the stability of the full browser 210.

First, the PC-based verification apparatus 100 controls the full browser 110 running in the PC environment and accesses the urls of a plurality of web pages previously stored in the PC-side storage unit 1120 (S110).

The PC-based full browser 110 accesses the url of the web page to process and display the web page on the screen.

At this time, the PC-based verification apparatus 100 connects to the next web page when an error does not occur when accessing the web page of the full browser 110, and collects error information and stores the information in the PC-side storage unit 120 when an error occurs. The user may access the next web page among the web pages (S120).

On the other hand, the PC-based verification apparatus 100 displays the collected error information on the screen when the access and processing of all the web pages previously stored in the PC-side storage unit 120 is terminated (S130).

The collected error information corresponds to the error contents such as the url of the web page where the error occurred and the cause of the error. On the other hand, when displaying error information on the screen, it is possible to simply display the url of the web page where the error occurred and the error content in parallel, but it is preferable to display the problem on the full browser stability by sorting by the same error cause on the screen. It is desirable to make it clear.

Subsequently, the user debugs the terminal full browser 210 using the debugger 140 using the collected error information, and then mounts it on the terminal verification apparatus 200 again (S140). However, this process may be omitted at this stage and may be performed after the verification process at the terminal verification apparatus 200 is finished.

As such, when the verification process in the PC-based verification apparatus 100 ends, the terminal verification apparatus 200 performs the following process targeting web pages for which an error does not occur in the verification process in the PC-based verification apparatus 100. Verification is performed through

First, the terminal board verification apparatus 200 that receives the urls of the web pages that do not generate an error is stored in the terminal storage unit 220 and controlled to access the stored plurality of web pages through the full browser 210. (S150).

If the terminal board verifying apparatus 200 does not generate an error when accessing a web page, the terminal verification device 200 connects to the next web page among the plurality of stored web pages through the full browser 210, and collects error information and generates the next web page if an error occurs. Control to connect to (S160).

On the other hand, the terminal board verification apparatus 200 displays the collected error information on the screen when the access and processing of all the web pages stored in the terminal storage unit 220 is terminated (S170).

The collected error information corresponds to the url of the web page where the error occurred and the error content. On the other hand, when displaying error information on the screen, it is possible to simply display the url of the web page where the error occurred and the error content in parallel, but it is preferable to display the problem on the full browser stability by sorting by the same error cause on the screen. It is desirable to make it clear.

Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to some embodiments, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments and can be freely modified and practiced within the scope of the technical idea described in the claims.
