User interface modification and usage tracking

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media having program instructions stored thereon to facilitate tracking events associated with a user interface display of an application at runtime on a client device, wherein the program instructions, when executed by a computing system, direct the computing system to at least:

• store one or more information structures that associate a view tracking indicator with a view selector, wherein the view tracking indicator can be used to track view usage, and the view selector indicates one or more constraints to be matched to select views of the application for tracking by the view tracking indicator, the views displayed in response to a user input trigger event;
• evaluate, in response to an occurrence of the user input trigger event during execution of the application, the view selector with one or more views to be displayed by the application based on the occurrence of the user input trigger event, the evaluating to determine whether each of the one or more constraints of the view selector matches properties of the one or more views;
• and
• configure, in response to determining that each of the one or more constraints of the view selector matches the properties of at least one of the one or more views, track the view tracking indicator to track usage of the view and to report the usage of the view to a server system.

A computing apparatus comprising:

• one or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media;
• a processing system of a client device operatively coupled with the one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media;
• and
• an application stored on the one or more computer-readable storage media comprising program instructions to facilitate tracking events associated with a user interface display of the application at runtime on the client device, wherein the program instructions, when executed by the processing system, direct the processing system to at least:
• store one or more information structures that associate a view tracking indicator with a view selector, wherein the view tracking indicator can be used to track view usage, and the view selector indicates one or more constraints to be matched to select views of the application for tracking using the view tracking indicator, the views displayed in response to a user input trigger event;
• evaluate, in response to an occurrence of the user input trigger event during execution of the application, the view selector with one or more views to be displayed by the application based on the occurrence of the user input trigger event, the evaluating to determine whether each of the one or more constraints of the view selector matches properties of the one or more views;
• and
• configure, in response to determining that each of the one or more constraints of the view selector matches the properties of at least one of the one or more views, track the view tracking indicator to track usage of the view and to report the usage of the view to a server system.
