USER INTERFACE USAGE SIMULATION GENERATION AND PRESENTATION

摘要

A method of simulating end user interaction with a user interface that comprises identifying a user interaction session during which an end user interacts with an application hosted by a client terminal via a user interface which is displayed by the application on a display of the client terminal, iteratively documenting user interface states of the user interface during the user interaction session, the user interface states are tagged to indicate a runtime presentation timing, and iteratively documenting user inputs inputted by the user during the user interaction session, the user inputs are documented with reference to display areas of the user interface at a respective of the user interface states during the user interaction session. The user interface states and the user inputs are time synchronized to generate a simulation of the user inputs during the interaction session with reference to the user interface states in a sequential manner.

1. A method of simulating end user interaction with a user interface of an application installed in a client terminal comprising:
identifying a user interaction session during which an end user interacts with an application hosted by a client terminal via a user interface which is displayed by said application on a display of said client terminal; iteratively documenting a plurality of user interface states of said user interface during said user interaction session, said plurality of user interface states are tagged to indicate a runtime presentation timing; iteratively documenting a plurality of user inputs inputted by said user during said user interaction session, said plurality of user inputs are documented with reference to display areas of said user interface at a respective of said plurality of user interface states during said user interaction session; and uploading said plurality of user interface states and said plurality of user inputs to a network connected central unit; wherein said plurality of user interface states and said plurality of user inputs are time synchronized to generate a simulation of said plurality of user inputs during said interaction session with reference to said plurality of user interface states in a sequential manner.
