CovDroid: A Black-Box Testing Coverage System for Android

In android ecosystem, the Apps marketplace vendor faces huge number of Apps with irregular quality. Besides bug finding, coverage index is neglected for the current Android testing services. However it is also a challenge to measure the testing coverage without source code. In this paper, we provide a systematic approach to measure the App testing coverage for black-box testing and implement CovDroid, a black-box coverage system for android. Furthermore, we use a App with different test cases to prove our concept that coverage index can improve the App and measure test cases quality for App market or testing vendors.
