HTML "> Automation testing has also become a major aspect, with the industry analysis, app application automation testing or will become the mobile internet new nuggets.

App automation testing is primarily an automated test solution for mobile Internet application developers. At present, many app testing is done through the research and development center of some testers to achieve, some functional more boring, or some of the limits of the test, for the manual implementation is a certain degree of difficulty. App automation tests create special characters by testing all of the functional implementations of the system, which can actually be done through automated testing.

On the operating system, Apple's iOS system is generally better than Android, submitted to Apple's online application to the Apple Store, Apple will help software providers to do the evaluation, but for Android, the app market is relatively confusing, no one organization to provide such services. For end customers, the user experience is very different from iOS, so the need for app automation testing is growing.

In this respect, the domestic app Automation test solution Provider Kanket Software general manager Cho Songdong said that the current domestic app Automation test market is still to be developed stage, the future can imagine a lot of space, "automated testing can simulate manual testing, including touch screen, keystrokes, clicks, input, Output characters can be implemented in a variety of operations. By selling the platform, inserting different plug-ins to achieve different functions, the profit model is also very clear. ”

At the same time, Cho Songdong admits that the current revenue is mainly from the communications market, and the mobile internet market has yet to be developed, "for mobile interconnection market, this year's planning is more to burn money to understand the market response and acceptance." In the early period of a long time, may be free or low-cost to do this thing, when the whole model or the need to touch the more clear, before the commercialization of the scheme.

However, in the face of a mixed Android application market, some small app developers even survive is a problem, and how to do it from the pocket to do automated testing? In this regard, Cho Songdong that small companies are indeed not the main target customers, and more than the middle of the app developers mining space, "the user base more applications, the more attention to quality, often do version of the update, the version of the update to pay attention to compatibility issues, the user base of the application of large manufacturers or the game Chamber of Commerce is more value these." ”

Talking about the current wind in the market response, Cho Songdong said VCs very optimistic, there have been some contacts, but he believes that the company must first have a profit point, if there is no profit point or market, "is blind to find the wind cast." ”
