302) in the recording, random touch screen (realization of this step is by listening to current test man to after some simulating keyboards/touch screen event of this transparent View, rule as follows:
If key-press event then gets the code name (self-defined code name is 1) of event, with type of action, (type is divided into: UP (upspringing), DOWN (pressing), LONG (length is pressed)) and key value (key assignments of " return key " of such as equipment is 4).
If touch-control event then gets event code name (self-defined code name is 2), with type of action, (type is divided into: UP (upspringing), DOWN (pressing), MOVE (movement)) and the coordinate (note a: action clicked is made up of with a UP two actions a DOWN of this X-axis Y-axis residing for interface control element; And the action of a movement is made up of with a multiple MOVE and UP action a DOWN) and its value be packaged into a special character string (one form is: " self-defined code name "+"; " + " type of action "+"; " + " X-axis coordinate "+"; " + " Y-axis coordinate ") add in StringBuffer and List set (in java a kind of orderly sequence) respectively, judge the type of action of this event, rule is as follows simultaneously:
If type of action is up type, temporarily remove this transparent view, then after converting character string dimension to, judge the value of this character string dimension first element when every bar character string is taken out in circulation from List set, if value is for " 1 ", then get the value of all elements thereafter and the sendKeySync () method in conjunction with Instrumentation sends simulating keyboard event.If value is for " 2 ", then get the value of all elements thereafter and the sendPointerSync () method in conjunction with Instrumentation sends touch-control event.And (such as under transparent view, we are some controls seen on tested program interface to thus achieve the various action event of touch action on transparent view/press device keys, when you click, (this action is made up of with up type down, that is this action first presses to unclamp again) certain control time it is no reaction, because click to as if transparent view, when background program monitor just now include UP type of action in click action time, program can be temporary transient remove this transparent view, then the event information be just saved in List set is taken out, click action is sent in conjunction with the sendPointerSync () method of Instrumentation () after resolving, so just realize redirect or the renewal at interface), again this transparent view covered on it after this action is complete and empty all values of List class, so just achieved the recording of step by the mode of going round and beginning again like this, until program listens is to exiting command),
303) X clicked when exiting recording below screen monitors icon (realization of this step is written to be kept at public temporary area information on local storage card, also just recorded through this automatic test script);
304) when step 303) complete after program can turn back to main interface, at this moment select start test (mechanism of this step is by realizing a simple file manager, its objective is for management the present invention record test script);
305) find the script just recorded and click, program starts to detect automatically (realization of this step is by after finding test script file, and then whether effective, if effectively, directly enter step 307 if detecting test script);
306) if when detecting that test script is invalid, program can point out test man again to record or cancel (realization of this step is again recorded if test man have selected, and directly enters step 302), otherwise then cancels);
307) program enters resolution phase, resolved rear prompting test man arrange testing time and test time delay or click " cancellations " (if the realization of this step is by step 305) redirect then directly resolve this test script file and the character string that every bar parses add to List gather in);
308) after setting, click " determination " afterwards program can carry out according to the information arranged resolving in automatic test (realization of this step obtains step 307) after after List class, by the method for circulation value take out each band have event information character string and by the spit (" of String; ") method migration becomes a character string dimension and judge according to the value of the first element of this character string, rule is as follows:
If value is " 0 ", then get the value of its second element with the 3rd element to start tested program;
If value is for " 1 ", then get the value of all elements thereafter and send the KeySync () method in conjunction with Instrumentation sends simulating keyboard event;
If value is for " 2 ", then get the value of all elements thereafter and send the PointerSync () method in conjunction with Instrumentation sends touch-control event;
309) when automatic test, program can show testing progress on screen, and midway also manually can stop test;
310) after test execution, whether program can eject dialog box inquiry test man and continue;
