Context-Dependent App Testing

Software quality of apps often is low, which at least partly results from problems with testing them. A main problem are frequent context changes that have to be dealt with. Network parameters such as latency and usable bandwidth change while moving; usage patterns vary. To address context changes in testing, we propose a novel concept. It is based on identifying blocks of code between which context changes are possible. It helps to greatly reduce complexity.
