## Background
PRIORITY
The present application claims priority to Chinese application number 201210177863.7 filed May 31, 2012 and all benefits accruing therefrom under U.S.C. §119, the contents of which is incorporated herein in its entirety.
BACKGROUND
The present disclosure relates generally to mobile networks and more particularly to a mobile network application test.
With the advent of technology and the popularity of mobile communication, mobile devices are changing the way information is being accessed. To keep up with demand, a network application needs to have superior performance for communication with a personal computer and a browser associated with a mobile device. Consequently, it may be necessary to conduct a large number of tests on a mobile network application in order to ensure the integrity and performance of the mobile network application as relating to various mobile devices.
A traditional test conducted on a mobile network application usually involves first the developing and testing of an application on a desktop computer by using a simulator that replicates a mobile device. A next step would be to test the application on a real mobile device and solving any problems that may be detected. The two delineated steps are then repeated as necessary.
For most mobile network applications, a large number of test cases are usually required to cover various scenarios that can ensue on a mobile device. However, using a real mobile device to complete the testing of these scenarios requires considerable time and can be resource intensive and expensive.
SUMMARY
Embodiments include a method, system, and computer program product for testing a mobile network application. The method includes receiving a test request for a mobile network application and activating a test session window on a browser of a mobile device according to the test request. The method also includes obtaining a request in hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) that corresponds to the test request such that the HTTP request contains session information for the test session window and sending the HTTP request to the mobile network application. An HTTP response containing session information is then received from the mobile network application.
Additional features and advantages are realized through the techniques of the present disclosure. Other embodiments and aspects of the disclosure are described in detail herein.

With reference to the figures, descriptions will be presented below to a method and system for testing a mobile network application according to the embodiments of the present invention.
FIG. 2 is an illustration of a method provided for testing a mobile network application according to one embodiment of the present invention. The method may be implemented on a mobile browser agent, which may be independent of a browser of a mobile device or a part of a browser of a mobile device. In this embodiment, a test request for a mobile network application is received from a client at step S210. The test request is used for testing the mobile network application on a browser of a mobile device.
The test request may comprise identification information for the client. In the presence of a plurality of clients, it is possible to identify which client the test request comes from. The client's identification information may be a physical identification of a client's machine operated by a user. In addition, the test request may further comprise action event information of an action event to be operated on the browser of the mobile device. The action event may be any action the user wants to perform on a page displayed on the browser, for example, opening a URL, clicking on a button on the page, etc. In addition, the test request may further comprise mobile device identification information for identifying the mobile device. As such, in the presence of a plurality of mobile devices, the user may specify which mobile device is used for tests.
At step S220, a test session window is activated on the browser of the mobile device according to the test request received from the client, wherein the test session window corresponds to the client. Accordingly, upon receipt of the test request from the client, the action event information contained in the test request may be interpreted first, for example, it is determined whether the action event is a synchronous event or an asynchronous event, etc. Then, the action event is triggered in the browser of the mobile device, so as to activate the corresponding test session window.
In instances where there already exists a test session window corresponding to the client, then the window is enabled to be in a currently active state on the browser. If there are no test session windows corresponding to the client, for example, the test request is a first test request for the application from the client, then a new test session window corresponding to the application of the client is generated on the browser of the mobile device. The identification information of the client sending the test request, the test session window information, and session information corresponding to the activated test session window may be all be stored. According to one embodiment of the present invention, the session information may be session identification information.
As shown, during step S230, an HTTP request corresponding to the test request is obtained, the HTTP request containing session information corresponding to the test session window. According to one embodiment of the present invention, the browser of the mobile device operates the action event contained in the test request in the activated test session window, generates a corresponding initial HTTP request and contains in the initial HTTP request the session information corresponding to the activated test session window, thereby an HTTP request corresponding to the test request is obtained. In this way, the HTTP request contains information corresponding to a test session window activated by a specific client, so that test requests from different clients are separated from each other.
Looking at step S240, the HTTP request corresponding to the test request is sent to an application server of the mobile network application. Subsequently, in step S250, an HTTP response of the application server to the HTTP request is received, the HTTP response containing session information of a corresponding test session window. In step S260, content displayed in response to the HTTP response in the test session window corresponding to the session information is sent to the client. Upon receiving the HTTP response, based on the session information contained in the HTTP response, the corresponding test session window is determined and activated, and the content is displayed in this window according to the HTTP response. Moreover, based on the correspondence between the test session window and the client and according to the test session window, the corresponding client is determined, and content displayed in the test session window in response to the HTTP response is sent to the determined corresponding client. By sending the displayed content to the client, the response of the tested mobile application to the requested action event may be easily obtained at the client.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, the content displayed on the browser of the mobile device may be saved in the form of screen copy and sent to the corresponding client based on the correspondence of the test session window with the client and the mobile network application tested on the client. In this way, by recording different session information for each test session window, a plurality of sessions may be separated from each other. In turn, a plurality of testers may test mobile network applications on the same mobile device in a multi-tenant way, so that the test cost may be reduced significantly and the test efficiency may be improved. In one example, session information corresponding to a session window may be stored in a cookie. A different cookie is stored for each test session window activated for each client. In this way, when an HTTP response is received from a server, a cookie corresponding to this window is updated and stored. When an operation is performed in the window again, a cookie contained in the HTTP request generated by the browser of the mobile device is replaced with the stored cookie corresponding to the window and then sent to the server.
FIG. 3 provides another embodiment illustrating a method for testing a mobile application. Steps S310 and S320 of FIG. 3 are the same as steps S210 and S220 in FIG. 2 respectively, and are thus not described in detail. In step S331, an initial HTTP request generated by the browser of the mobile device according to the test request is obtained, wherein the browser of the mobile device operates an action event contained in the test request in the activated test session window and generates a corresponding initial HTTP request.
In step S332, cookie information corresponding to the activated test session window is obtained, wherein the cookie is stored when the client accessed the application server via the mobile terminal browser last time. Each cookie corresponds to a different test session window of each client and contains session information of each test session window. In step S333, cookie information in the initial HTTP request is replaced with the cookie information corresponding to the test session window, so that an HTTP request corresponding to the test request is obtained. In step S340, the HTTP request is sent to the application server. In step S351, an HTTP response of the application server to the HTTP request is received, the HTTP response containing updated cookie information. Session information of the corresponding test session window is contained in the updated cookie information. In step S352, the cookie information contained in the received HTTP response is stored as cookie information corresponding to the test session window. Subsequently, in step S360, content displayed in the test session window in response to the HTTP response is sent to the client. Upon receipt of the HTTP response, the browser of the mobile terminal identifies the corresponding test session window by the session information contained in a cookie of the HTTP response and displays content in the window according to the HTTP response. By sending the displayed content to the client, the response of the tested mobile application to the requested action event may be easily obtained at the client.
The embodiment discussed involving the use of cookies is only provided as an example for providing clarity with the understanding that those skilled in the art may appreciate that any other alternatives may be used to store session information in correspondence to a test session window and deliver the session information between an application server and a mobile device. For example, in an HTML5 environment session information may be stored in correspondence to a test session window in a local storage of a mobile device. The action event in the embodiments of the present invention may comprise a synchronous event, for example, locally updating a page view at the mobile browser, and may also comprise an asynchronous event, such as XHR call ( ) Timeout ( ), Interval ( ) or reloading ( ) etc. Among them, XHR call ( ) refers to an asynchronous Ajax call, Timeout ( ) refers to calling a certain method after a given period of time, Interval ( ) refers to calling a certain method at regular intervals, and reloading ( ) refers to reloading a page. Those skilled in the art may appreciate that the various embodiments of the present invention may be further applied to other forms of synchronous or asynchronous events, which fall within the protection scope of the present invention. In addition, it should be pointed out that the present invention has been described above in the context of testing one mobile network application from one client, in which case the test session window corresponds to the client. However, those skilled in the art may appreciate that in the case of simultaneously testing a plurality of mobile network applications from one client, the test session window corresponds to not only the client but also a specific mobile network application in order to differentiate mobile network applications. In this way, a window is switched and activated via the correspondence of the window with the client and the mobile network application.
Furthermore, by way of example, description will be presented below to how to capture, trigger and monitor an action event. Tester A performs a test at mobile network test client A and generates an action event. For example, the tester A clicks on a button for page view updating. After capturing the event, client A generates a test request containing the action event, for example, an action event request, and sends the request to a mobile browser agent. For example, the action event request may be in the form below:

    
    
        action-request::={client identifier, mobile device identifier, action-event}
        action-event::={type, coordinate(pX, pY), target, [continuous-action-trace]}

Upon receipt of the action event request, the mobile browser agent interprets the action event, triggers the action event in a page of test window A corresponding to the action event request of a real browser of a mobile device, and generates an HTTP request to an application server of a mobile network application.

    
    


The mobile browser agent may further comprise an event monitor. A page, when loaded for the first time, is registered with the event monitor. For example,















monitor.connect(



  win.xhr | win.addEventListener | win.onLoad | ...,



    func(type/*touch|mouse/xhr/load*/){



      switch( ):



})










Through registration above, an event in the page window may be monitored and bounded to control logic. When a certain event in the page window is triggered, the control logic may capture the event and perform operations accordingly. Upon receipt of an HTTP response from the mobile application server, the event monitor will monitor the event till the end. When the event end is monitored, a window is switched and activated, and a screenshot of the current window is saved. Afterwards, the shot is sent back to the mobile network test client A.
According to one embodiment, the mobile browser agent may switch and activate an appropriate test session window under a group of customizable conditions. The customizable test session window activating condition may be, for example, one or more of: receipt of the arrival of a new test request, end of an ongoing action event in a test session window, completion of the processing in a current active test session window, and any other appropriate customized conditions, etc. By way of example, descriptions will be presented below to respective customized conditions according to the embodiment of the present invention. For instance, in Example 1, there are two active user windows, window 1 and window 2, on a current mobile device, and window 1 is now in an active state (the current active window); if a new request arrives at window 2 at this point, window 2 needs to be switched to the current active window, and corresponding subsequent actions need to be triggered. In Example 2, there are two active user windows, window 1 and window 2, on a current mobile device, and window 1 is now in an active state (the current active window); at this point, an HTTP response of window 2 arrives, then window 2 needs to switched to the current active window and the HTTP response needs to be displayed. In Example 3, there are two active user windows, window 1 and window 2, on a current mobile device, wherein window 1 is now in an active state (the current active window) and window 2 is in a wait state; at this point, all events in window 1 are completed (including a step of screen capturing), then window 2 needs to be switched to the current active window for processing. In Example 4, there are two active user windows, window 1 and window 2, on a current mobile device, and window 1 is now in an active state (the current active window) and window 2 is in a wait state; at this point a change of an event (data) in window 2 triggers the customized condition, for example, subarea A in window 2 is locally refreshed and a priority of this condition is higher than an ongoing step in window 1, then window 2 needs to be switched to the current active window or processing.
Although various possible window activation customized conditions have been displayed above by way of example, those skilled in the art may appreciate that any appropriate approaches may be used to activate and switch a window. In addition, a mechanism is provided to share a mobile device whereby a plurality of testers may be supported by one mobile device in a multi-tenant manner, and this procedure is transparent to each tester. Hence, the test cost may be reduced significantly and the test efficiency be improved. Compared with a simulator, the present invention provides more accurate test results, because a user may remotely work on a real mobile device other than on a simulator.
Furthermore, a system for testing a mobile application is provided according to one embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 4, which includes receiving means 410 configured to receive a test request for a mobile network application from a client, in which the test request is used for testing the mobile network application on a browser of a mobile device. The system also includes window activating means 420 configured to activate a test session window on the browser of the mobile device according to the test request, wherein the test session window corresponds to the client; HTTP processing means 430 configured to obtain an HTTP request corresponding to the test request, wherein the HTTP request contains session information of the test session window. The HTTP request is sent correspondingly to an application server of the mobile network application. Subsequently the system can then receive an HTTP response from the application server (responding to the HTTP request). The HTTP response will contain session information of the test session window. In addition, sending means 440 is provided and configured to send to the client, content displayed in response to the HTTP response in the test session window that is corresponding to the session information.
In one embodiment, the test request may contain client identification information and action event information on an action event. The window activating means 420 may further comprise: action event interpreting means 421 configured to, in response to receiving the test request, interpret action event information contained in the test request; and action event triggering means 422 configured to trigger the action event in the browser of the mobile device so as to activate the test session window. The HTTP processing means 430 may further be configured to obtain an initial HTTP request generated by the browser of the mobile device according to the test request; and contain in the obtained initial HTTP request the session information corresponding to the activated test session window, so as to obtain the HTTP request corresponding to the test request. The window activating means 420 may further be configured to activate a corresponding test session window according to the session information contained in the HTTP response. The sending means 440 is further configured to determine a corresponding client according to the test session window, and send to the determined corresponding client the content displayed in response to the HTTP response in the test session window.
In one embodiment, the session information may be stored in a cookie (information) corresponding to the test session window such that the HTTP processing means 430 may further be configured to obtain an initial HTTP request generated by the browser of the mobile device according to the test request. The cookie information corresponding to the activated test session window and the cookie information containing session information of the test session window can both be obtained. This cookie information can be replaced in the initial HTTP request with the cookie information corresponding to the test session window so as to obtain the HTTP request corresponding to the test request.
In one embodiment, the receiving means 410 may further be configured to store cookie information contained in the received HTTP response as the cookie information corresponding to the test session window. The session information may further be stored in a local buffer. The test request may further include mobile device identification information for identifying a mobile device. The window activating means 420 may be configured to activate the test session window according to one or more of the following customized conditions: receipt of the arrival of a new test request, end of an ongoing action event in a test session window, completion of the processing in a current active test session window or any other appropriate customized conditions.
