Title: Re: [mobile-iwg] New component idea available: Automation Test Framework
Hi Marcel,

As discussed in the Pulsar call, please take a look at the following Symbian Foundation package: http://developer.symbian.org/main/source/packages/test

The TEF framework has been used extensively within Symbian for building application test coverage for areas like application certification etc. You can also get more details from the package owner, name is on the wiki.

Regards,
Ronnie

Hi all, 

Once Helios is finally out we are now focusing on thinking about some great ideas to implement as new features in Sequoyah. One of them is an automation testing framework.

This automation test framework, which is language and platform agnostic, will provide means to define and implement any sequence of steps for a test, with a seamless integration of tools and support necessary for tests in a single Integrated Development Environment based on Eclipse technology. Through the use of this framework, the user will be able to test a mobile application interacting with a device emulator, a GPS simulator, a camera connected to the PC's USB port, a user registration web service, among many other possibilities, in an automated way.
Automation Test Framework intends to be different from the similar frameworks already available due the following reasons:
  • Eclipse based
  • Open Source solution
  • Image based testing support
  • Easier to use
  • Language and platform agnostic
  • Highly customizable

For more information, just send an email to this list or visit our sites:

Blog: http://sequoyahproject.wordpress.com/2010/06/28/post9/
Wiki page: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Sequoyah#Automation_Test_Framework

This component is still in a proposal phase, so please, feel free to provide any comments or suggestions. We intend to start working on it as soon as possible.

Your feedback is more than welcome!

Best!
 Marcel
