  • Detecting overlapping web elements in a graphical user interface
    Patent number: 10127202
    Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for automatically detecting layout corruption in graphical user interface (GUI). A layout detection system iteratively analyzes web elements contained in a GUI page. The layout detection system identifies a parent web element and its child web elements. Overlapping web elements are detected by comparing an area of the parent web element to the total area of child web elements contained within the parent web element.

  • Reporting the presence of hardcoded strings on a user interface (UI)
    Patent number: 9117026
    Abstract: A method and apparatus analyzes user interface (UI) screens associated with a software application, and determines whether any of the strings displayed on the UI screens are erroneously displayed to an end user. Based on the analysis, the method and apparatus generates a report for a developer or tester, for example, which allows that party to remove unwanted hardcoded strings from the UI screen code.
