Sapienz: Multi-objective Automated Testing for Android Applications

This is a prototype of the Sapienz approach for multi-objective automated testing for Android applications. Please note that this repository is no longer maintained.

Simply download the artefact here and apply the following environment configuration:

• Python: 2.7

• Android SDK: API 19

• Linux: sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev python-dev

• Mac OS: brew install coreutils for gtimeout

Install Python dependencies:

sudo pip install -r requirements.txt

python main.py <apk_path | source_folder_path>

where apk_path is path to the subject apk under test
or you can specify source_folder_path for the subject app with source code

• instrumented apk should be compiled and named with suffix "-debug.apk"
• closed-source/non-instrumented apk name should end with ".apk"

• ANDROID_HOME and WORKING_DIR in settings.py should be set before starting Sapeinz.

• for open-sourced apps, outputs are stored under the given source folder
• for closed-sourced apps, output are stored under <apk_file_path>_output

Output content:

/coverages - Coverage reports are stored here

/crashes - Crash reports and corresponding test cases that lead to the crashes 
(and also recorded videos files when using real devices)

/intermediate - Generated test event sequences for each generation; logbook of the genetic evolution; 
and line charts showing the variation trend for each objectives.

• This implementation has been tested with Android 4.4, running on Ubuntu 14.04 and Mac OS 10.10
• If measure statement coverage for open-sourced apps, the subjects need to be processed to support EMMA instrumentation: (Please refer to Dynodroid https://code.google.com/archive/p/dyno-droid/)
• This version is only for emulators running on a physical PC.
