Abstract

With the surging computing power and network connectivity of smartphones, more third-party applications and services are deployed on these platforms and enable users to customize their mobile devices. Due to the lack of rigorous security analysis, fast evolving smartphone platforms, however, have suffered from a large number of system vulnerabilities and security flaws. In this paper, we present a model-based conformance testing framework for mobile platforms, focused on Android platform. Our framework systematically generates test cases from the formal specification of the mobile platform and performs conformance testing with the generated test cases. We also demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of our framework through case studies on Android Inter-Component Communication module.
