Objects Introduction

Objects are the ‘building blocks’ of an application

Buttons, Edit boxes, Lists etc.

It’s impossible to develop automation without accessing and recognizing the

application objects

All use cases and test scenario's leverage the application objects (Pressing buttons,

selecting from lists, entering text into textbox’s etc.)

OCR is the commonly used object recognition in mobile

OCR = Optical character recognition ���� In a sense it implements the WYSIWYG method

convert images into manageable and searchable text

In mobile it is critical to also use OS Object level analysis

Web objects are critical for web based mobile applications (DOM)

Objects Introduction

The Document Object Model (DOM) is a cross-platform and

language-independent convention for representing and

interacting with objects in HTML, XHTML and XML documents

Objects in the DOM tree may be addressed and manipulated by

using methods on the objects

DOM Objects in a nutshell

DOM Object Example � Mozilla FireFox Browser

DOM Object Example � HTC One XL Device

Mobile Web Objects – Automation Challenges

Using an Hybrid Objects approach

OCR/Visual Analysis

Real Objects (DOM)

Each Device, Each Network, Each OS Platform behaves different

Preparing a Matrix of right mobile devices (Smartphone and Tablets), right OS platforms and right

automation solution is a key!

Manual testing for interoperability testing is always important and can identify critical bugs

Mobile Performance and Monitoring is a MUST

Application and web site optimization

Cross Browser testing on REAL mobile devices

Mobile Web/HTML5 apps become target for security attacks – Build into your ALM testing
