Claim Text:
1. A testing method used to check a crashed application, the testing method comprising steps of: a. Providing a network device and a storage unit; b. Installing an operating system in the network device, installing an application in the operating system, and storing a first value, an another value and a second value in the storage unit; c. Sending a message to the application to request a response from the application, and adjusting the first value to the another value other than the first value by proceeding a predetermined algorithm each time a predetermined time period passes; wherein the predetermined algorithm adjusts the first value to the another value in a manner of gradually approaching the second value, which is different from the first value; wherein a margin between the first value and the second value depends on a predetermined importance of the application; and d. Rebooting the operating system once the another value is equal to the second value, for the application is deemed crashed; or alternatively, resetting the another value back to the first value once the application gives the response, for the application is deemed not crashed.
