Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving the Exploration Strategy of an Automated Android GUI Testing Tool based on the Q-Learning Algorithm by Selecting Potential ActionsGoh Kwang Yi, Salmi Binti Baharom, Jamilah DinResearchers have proposed automated testing tools to minimise the effort and resources spent on testing GUIs. A relatively simple strategy employed by the proposed tools thus far is the observe-select-execute approach, where all of a GUI’s actions on its current state are observed, one action is selected and the selected action is executed on the software. The strategy’s key function … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 2 Mar 2022 · 6,783 accessesView PDFCite
