  • Automated mobile application verification
    Patent number: 10013330
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for automatically testing and verifying applications. A user input profile is generated for an application by performing a static analysis on the application. Simulated user input for the application is generated based at least in part on the user input profile. Execution of the application is initiated in a computing device. The simulated user input is provided to the application executed in the computing device. It is verified whether the application meets performance criteria in the computing device.

  • Error troubleshooting using a correlated knowledge base
    Patent number: 9836346
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for an error troubleshooting application. Error data is obtained from a client device. A correlated knowledge base is referenced to determine if a solution is associated with the error data. If a solution is associated with the error data, a notification embodying the solution is communicated to the client device. If a solution is not associated with the error data, a notification indicating the solution is unknown is communicated to the client device.

  • Constructing state-transition functions for mobile devices
    Patent number: 9372786
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for a state monitoring application. A state monitoring application initiates the execution of test operations on a client device. States of the client device are monitored to determine when the client device is at risk of entering an unresponsive state. When the client device is at risk, the state monitoring application initiates the execution of remedy operations to prevent the client device from becoming unresponsive.

  • AUTOMATED MOBILE APPLICATION VERIFICATION
    Publication number: 20160026555
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for automatically testing and verifying mobile applications. A mobile application is obtained from a source entity. The mobile application is automatically installed in different mobile computing devices in a testing environment. Execution of the mobile application is automatically initiated in the different mobile computing devices. Whether the mobile application meets performance criteria is automatically verified for each of the different mobile computing devices.

  • Binary file application processing
    Patent number: 9146720
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for processing applications to determine compatible devices. An application processing system may determine application dependencies by parsing application manifest files, filtering customer reviews, and/or emulating the application on a virtual device. Based at least in part on the application dependencies, a determination may be made whether to make the application available for download and/or execution on a device.
