It is almost impossible to avoid errors sneaking into the layout of an application throughout the course of development. For a manual tester, it is a long and arduous process to detect them.
A fully automated layout comparison between different versions or variants of an application is available in webmate. For quick evaluation, the layout differences can be inspected individually in the test result.
With webmate Rule-Based Testing, you can define target features of your application as rules that are automatically checked during testing.
Do all buttons have the right color? Is the spelling in the application correct? Is a UI operation completed within a given time? With webmate, these questions can be answered without additional expenses.
One of the biggest challenges of developing IVI-applications is the variety of system event sources. In a modern luxury class automobile, inputs from the driver, co-driver and back-seat passenger compete with calls, text messages, navigation updates, and a variety of events from other vehicle components (ECUs).
The occurrence of these events, which in an Android Automotive system are expressed in „Intents", can lead to error states within applications that are difficult to evoke and cannot be fully verified by tests due to the combinatorial explosion of possible event sequences.
The new test type „intent fuzzing“ in webmate can be used to stress test the stability of AAOS-applications.
