GDG, or Google Developer Groups, is a well-known global developer activity initiated and sponsored by Google in 2008. Recently, at the 2018 Google Developer Festival Shenzhen (GDG Shenzhen DevFest 2018) held at the Sentosa Hotel in Shenzhen, Yin Chunpeng, chief architect of Testin Cloud Testing, was invited to share content related to AI automated testing of mobile applications. The depth and technical details of the implementation of Testin Cloud Testing, an enterprise service platform, in AI applications left a deep impression on the developers who came to Shenzhen, the "Silicon Valley of China".

At GDG Shenzhen DevFest 2018, Yin Chunpeng first explained the technical details of Testin Cloud Testing in mobile application UI automation testing, and then focused on the important changes that occur when UI automation testing meets AI. Traditional UI automation testing has not been able to solve the problems of low ROI, high maintenance costs, and poor stability. Problems often encountered include adaptation problems caused by Android fragmentation, rapid changes in requirements, frequent changes in UI interfaces, and different development methods leading to different testing technologies required; small changes lead to overall changes, and each change must be adapted to different mobile phones as much as possible. In a large number of complex scenarios, the original traditional UI automation technology requires a large number of customized rules to implement, and it still cannot cover them completely.

The changes brought by AI are mainly to make the program work like a human, and to perform tests by analyzing the screen through visual algorithms instead of control information. Traditional UI automated testing relies heavily on the control information generated by various test frameworks for execution, and these control information are actually different from the screens we see with our naked eyes. In addition, the fragmentation of devices and different development methods lead to different applications performing very differently on different devices. Testin Cloud Testing is currently carrying out important work, analyzing mobile application interfaces and semanticizing interface elements, while replacing traditional test steps with natural language descriptions, so as to truly achieve easy writing, version iteration independence, and device independence, and even directly convert traditional test case steps into execution. AI technology has brought important impacts and changes to traditional UI automated testing that cannot be ignored.
