Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for testing applications on a handheld device

A tester system for testing one or more applications, the one or more applications being processed on a handheld device, the tester system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory operatively coupled to the processor, the memory storing computer executable instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to carry out the method comprising:
• receiving an error state corresponding to the one or more applications;
• retrieving one or more test script parameters corresponding to the error state from a database, wherein the one or more test script parameters corresponding to the error state are stored in the database;
• providing the one or more test script parameters to an input subsystem, wherein the input subsystem is connected to the handheld device;
• notifying a user to provide one or more user inputs corresponding to the error state, wherein the one or more test script parameters are not stored in the database;
• receiving the one or more user inputs from the user;
• and
• providing the one or more user inputs to the input subsystem.

A system for testing one or more applications, the system comprising:

• an input subsystem;
• an output subsystem;
• and
• a tester system, wherein the tester system comprises of:
• a processor;
• and
• a memory operatively coupled to the processor, the memory storing computer executable instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to carry out the method comprising:
• receiving an error state corresponding to the one or more applications from the output subsystem, wherein the output subsystem is configured to capture a screen image of the error state from the handheld device and transmits the screen image of the error state to the tester system;
• retrieving one or more test script parameters corresponding to the error state from a database, wherein the one or more test script parameters corresponding to the error state are stored in the database;
• providing the one or more test script parameters to the input subsystem, wherein the input subsystem comprises:
• a subsystem receiver configured to receive the one or more test script parameters and the one or more user inputs from the tester system;
• and
• a processing module configured to process the one or more test script parameters and the one or more user inputs on the handheld device;
• notifying a user to provide one or more user inputs corresponding to the error state, wherein the one or more test script parameters are not stored in the database;
• receiving the one or more user inputs from the user;
• and
• providing the one or more user inputs to the input subsystem.

A computer-readable storage medium storing instructions for performing a method, using one or more computing devices, for testing one or more applications running on a handheld device, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a tester system, an error state corresponding to the one or more applications;
• retrieving, by the tester system, one or more test script parameters corresponding to the error state from a database, wherein the one or more test script parameters corresponding to the error state are stored in the database;
• providing, by the tester system, the one or more test script parameters to an input subsystem, wherein the input subsystem is connected to the handheld device;
• notifying, by the tester system, a user to provide one or more user inputs corresponding to the error state, wherein the one or more test script parameters are not stored in the database;
• receiving, by the tester system, the one or more user inputs from the user;
• and
• providing, by the tester system, the one or more user inputs to the input subsystem.
