With Android devices become widespread, the number of Android applications has grown rapidly in recent years. Consequently, how to automate the testing of Android applications has increasingly drawn attention. However, most of Android testing tools require users to have programming skills to develop or maintain low-level test scripts and, hence, the uses of these testing tools have a steep learning curve. In order to ease the development and maintenance of Android test scripts, this paper adapts the concept of keyword-driven testing into the context of Android applications. Particularly, a test library is developed with various keywords defined to support Android keyword-driven testing. Moreover, a corresponding testing tool, called RobotDroid, is implemented to facilitate the Android keyword-driven test case development and execution. With the proposed Android test library and tool, the efforts to write test cases for Android applications can be greatly reduced. The readability, reusability, and maintainability of the Android test cases can also be effectively improved.
