Abstract

Existing Android testing tools, such as Monkey, generate a large quantity and a wide variety of user events to expose latent GUI bugs in Android apps. However, even if a bug is found, a majority of the events thus generated are often redundant and bug-irrelevant. In addition, it is also time-consuming for developers to localize and replay the bug given a long and tedious event sequence (trace).
