FIG. 1 is a flow chart illustrating a testing method according to an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to fig. 1, the test method may be applied to a test terminal, including:

step 101, displaying a page to be tested of an application program.

And 102, responding to the test operation of the page to be tested, and controlling the page to be tested to update the page content based on the test operation.

And 103, generating a text description corresponding to the test operation based on a preset operation description template and the page element associated with the test operation in the updating process of the page content.

And 104, if a program error occurs in the updating process of the page content, sending the text description to a background system, wherein the background system is used for carrying out error positioning according to the text description.

By the method, the text description corresponding to the test operation can be generated in real time in the test process based on the preset operation description template and the page elements associated with the test operation. Therefore, if a program error occurs in the testing process, the text description can be sent to the background system, so that the background system can perform quick and accurate problem positioning according to the text description, and the problem positioning efficiency and the program error repairing efficiency are improved.

The following is a detailed illustration of the various steps described above in order to provide a better understanding of the testing methods provided by the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

For example, the test operation on the page to be tested may include a click operation or a slide operation on the page to be tested, which is not limited in this disclosure. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in response to the test operation on the page to be tested, the page to be tested may be controlled to update the page content based on the test operation, that is, the page to be tested is subjected to the corresponding function test. For example, in response to a click operation on a button control used for jumping to another page in the page to be tested, the page to be tested is controlled to jump to another page.

In the updating process of the page content, the text description corresponding to the test operation can be generated based on the preset operation description template and the page element associated with the test operation. In consideration of the variety of types of test operations, a plurality of operation description templates respectively corresponding to the types of test operations may be preset, for example, a first operation description template corresponding to a click test operation is set, a second operation description template corresponding to a slide test operation is set, and the like.

In a possible manner, based on a preset operation description template and a page element associated with a test operation, a text description corresponding to the test operation is generated, which may be: and acquiring a corresponding target description template from preset operation description templates based on the type of the test operation, wherein each preset operation description template has identification information for representing the type of the test operation. And then, generating a text description corresponding to the test operation based on the target description template and the page element associated with the test operation.

By the method, the operation description template matched with the test operation can be determined according to the type of the test operation, so that more accurate text description is obtained, and possible problem positioning and problem repairing (namely bug repairing) in the subsequent process are facilitated.

In a possible manner, each preset operation description template may include preset information items to be filled, the content of each information item to be filled being empty, and each information item to be filled has identification information for characterizing the content to be filled. Correspondingly, based on the preset operation description template and the page element associated with the test operation, a text description corresponding to the test operation is generated, which may be: determining description information of a code element corresponding to a page element associated with a test operation in a source code of a page to be tested, wherein the description information comprises at least one of a class name, object information, selector information, unit information and view information corresponding to the code element. And then, based on the description information and the identification information of the information items to be filled in the operation description template, filling the description information into the information items corresponding to the operation description template to obtain the text description corresponding to the test operation.

That is, the preset operation description template presets a plurality of information items to be filled, the content of which is empty, and the plurality of information items to be filled can be filled to obtain corresponding text descriptions after obtaining the description content corresponding to the test operation. In practical application, the operation description template may be a function that performs content filling through incoming parameters, where each incoming parameter corresponds to one information item to be filled in the operation description template, and thus, a corresponding text description may be output through the function.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the text description may be used to perform problem location and bug repair, so that after a program error occurs, description information of a code element corresponding to a page element associated with a test operation in a source code of a page to be tested may be determined first. For example, the test operation is a sliding operation, the associated page element is a whole page element corresponding to the page to be tested, a code element corresponding to the whole page element may be determined in the source code of the page to be tested, for example, the code element corresponding to the whole page element is determined to be scrollView in the source code of the page to be tested. Then, description information of the code element may be further determined.

Illustratively, the description information may include at least one of class name information, object information, selector information, cell information, and view information corresponding to the code element. For example, referring to the above example, the code element is a scrollView, and the description information of the code element may be determined to include a scrollView class name, a proxy class name corresponding to the scrollView, and the like.

For example, for a click operation, the corresponding description information may be acquired with reference to the contents of table 1.

TABLE 1

Referring to table 1, if the UIControl event is triggered by a click operation, the description information may include a UIControl class name, target information, and selector information. Or the control corresponding to the click operation has text information and/or picture information, and the description information may further include the text information and/or the picture information of the control correspondingly. If the uigesturrecognizer event is triggered, the description information may include a uigesturrecognizer class name, view information of where, target information, and selector information. If the UITableViewCell event is triggered, the description information may include a UITableViewCell class name, section (cell) information and row (row) information, tableview (table view) information. If the UICollectionViewCell event is triggered, the description information may include a UICollectionViewCell class name, section (cell) information and row (line) information where the UICollectionView is located, and UICollectionView (view) information.

For example, in practical application, the code for acquiring the description information of the corresponding code element of the page element in the source code may be written in the source code in a traceless and buried manner, so as to reduce the coupling of the code.

After the description information of the corresponding code element in the source code is obtained, the description information may be filled in the information item corresponding to the operation description template based on the description information and the identification information of the information item to be filled in the operation description template, so as to obtain the text description corresponding to the test operation. For example, the operation description template corresponding to UIControl is: UIControl: "the < class name information > is clicked, target is < object information >, and selector is < selector information >. Based on this, the generated textual description may be: UIControl: "SSButton clicked, target is SSViewController, and selector is onButtonClick". Or, the operation description template corresponding to the page jump is as follows: the < class name information B > is jumped to from < class name information a >. Based on this, a textual description may be generated as: jump from AController to BController.

After the textual description is generated, the textual description may be sent to a background system in response to a commit operation on the textual description. That is to say, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, a tester may submit a text description to the bug background system, and a corresponding developer may open the bug background system to find the description information of the corresponding bug, and go offline for positioning. And the description information can comprise the text description corresponding to the test operation, so that a developer can quickly and accurately position the problem based on the text description in the error description page, and the problem positioning efficiency and bug repairing efficiency are improved.

In a possible mode, operation screenshots and log information corresponding to the test operations can be generated, and then when a program error occurs in the updating process of the page content, the operation screenshots and the log information are sent to the background system, and the background system can be used for positioning the error according to at least one of the text description, the operation screenshots and the log information.

That is, in addition to the textual description, embodiments of the present disclosure provide information in two dimensions, an operation screenshot and log information, to assist in problem location. The text description can accurately describe the page elements related to the test operation when the program error occurs, the operation screenshot can visually display the page element condition when the program error occurs, the corresponding page elements can be highlighted, and the log information can globally display the running condition of the application program when the program error occurs. Therefore, the program error can be more comprehensively described by combining the character description, the operation screenshot and the log information, so that the problem positioning is more accurately carried out.

For example, referring to FIG. 2, during testing of a mobile device, textual descriptions, operational screenshots, and log information may be generated to assist in problem location. The text description may include at least one of a click operation description, a slide operation description, and a page jump description according to an actual test situation.

For example, the log information may be generated in real time during the updating process of the page content, and the operation screenshot may be obtained by screenshot of the current page content in response to the updating process of the page content. Or, the operation screenshot may be obtained by recording the whole updating process of the page content and then screening the corresponding video frame in the recorded video. Specifically, the updating process of the page content may be recorded first to obtain a test operation video, then a target video frame corresponding to the cutting operation is obtained in response to the cutting operation on the test operation video, and the target video frame is used as an operation screenshot of the test operation.

It should be understood that, in general, a bug will only occur for a short time, and therefore, the embodiments of the present disclosure may cut out the interval in which the bug occurs in all the recorded operation contents. For example, referring to fig. 3, if the user finds that bug occurs in the 3 rd frame video and the 4 th frame video by viewing the recorded test operation video, the user may perform a clipping operation on the 3 rd frame video and the 2 nd frame video, and perform a clipping operation on the 4 th frame video and the 5 th frame video, so as to obtain the 3 rd frame video and the 4 th frame video as final operation screenshots.

After the text description, the operation screenshot and the log information corresponding to the test operation are obtained, the corresponding text description, the operation screenshot and the log information can be sent to a background system when a program error occurs. After receiving the corresponding text description, operation screenshot and log information, the background system can perform problem positioning by combining with multi-dimensional problem description information.

For example, the backend system may display an error description page that includes textual description, operational screenshot, and log information. For example, the error description page shown in FIG. 4 may be generated. Referring to fig. 4, the error description page displays three display areas side by side, where a first display area is used to display text descriptions corresponding to the program errors, a second display area is used to display operation screenshots corresponding to the program errors, and a third display area is used to display log information corresponding to the program errors.

Of course, the error description page may also display other information related to the program error, for example, the error description page may display information such as identification information of the application program and a test case name.

In a possible mode, the background system can also respond to the selection operation of the target text description corresponding to the target test operation in the error description page, highlight the target text description, determine a target operation screenshot corresponding to the target test operation, and highlight the target operation screenshot.

For example, referring to fig. 4, in response to a selection operation of a first textual description in the error description page, the first textual description is highlighted (fig. 4 is illustrated as being highlighted in grayscale with the first textual description displayed). Accordingly, a target operation screenshot corresponding to the first text description can be determined in the operation screenshots (fig. 4 illustrates by a page B), and the target operation screenshot is highlighted (fig. 4 illustrates by highlighting by displaying the page B as gray scale). Therefore, when the text description is checked, the corresponding operation screenshot can be synchronously checked, and problem positioning and bug repairing are facilitated.

It should be understood that, in a specific implementation of the present disclosure, highlighting the target operation screenshot may also be highlighting a page element associated with the test operation in the target operation screenshot, which is not limited in this disclosure.

Based on the same concept, the embodiment of the disclosure also provides a test method applied to a background system. Referring to fig. 5, the method includes:

step 501, receiving a text description corresponding to a test operation sent by a test terminal. The text description is sent when a program error occurs in the updating process after the testing terminal responds to the testing operation of the page to be tested, controls the page to be tested to update the page content based on the testing operation, and generates page elements related to the testing operation based on a preset operation description template in the updating process of the page content.

Step 502, error location is performed based on the text description.

In a possible mode, the background system can also receive an operation screenshot and log information corresponding to the test operation sent by the test terminal, and then display an error description page comprising the text description, the operation screenshot and the log information. Accordingly, step 502 may be: and responding to the selection operation of the target character description corresponding to the target test operation in the error description page, highlighting the target character description, determining a target operation screenshot corresponding to the target test operation, and highlighting the target operation screenshot.

It should be understood that, the related execution process of the background system may refer to the related content in the test terminal embodiment, and is not described herein again.

By the scheme, the test terminal can generate the text description corresponding to the test operation in real time based on the preset operation description template and the page element associated with the test operation in the test process, and if a program error occurs in the test process, the test terminal can send the text description to the background system. The background system can perform quick and accurate problem positioning according to the text description, and improve the efficiency of problem positioning and the efficiency of repairing program errors. Besides, the test terminal can send operation screenshots and log information besides the character description, and the background system can perform problem positioning based on the character description, the operation screenshots and the log information and in combination with the problem description information of multiple dimensions, so that the accuracy of problem positioning is improved.
