Automated software test can be the key to improve the traditional manual testing, often time consuming and repetitive. Mobile applications support user-interaction characteristics, which are independent from the application logic. They include content presentation or navigation features, such as scroll or zoom into screens, and a rotating device. In this paper, an automated testing framework is proposed and evaluated. This framework integrates user- interaction features, historical bug information, and an interest points detector and descriptor to identify new bugs. It has shown that it works well detecting bugs associated with user-interactions.]]></p></abstract>

Las pruebas automatizadas de software pueden ser la clave para mejorar las pruebas de software manuales tradicionales, que a menudo requieren mucho tiempo y son repetitivas. Las aplicaciones móviles soportan funciones de interacción con el usuario, que son independientes de la lógica de la aplicación; entre ellas se incluyen funciones de presentación de contenido o navegación, rotación del dispositivo como desplazamiento, aumento o disminución de las pantallas. En este documento, se propone y evalúa una herramienta de pruebas de software automatizada. La herramienta integra funciones de interacción con el usuario, información histórica de defectos y un detector y descriptor de puntos de interés para identificar nuevos defectos. La herramienta demostró que funciona bien detectando defectos relacionados con las interacciones con el usuario.]]></p></abstract>
