• Abstract summary: We propose a formalized and comprehensive environment to evaluate the entire process of automated GUI Testing. We divide the testing process into three key subtasks: test intention generation, test task execution, and GUI defect detection. It evaluates the performance of different models using three data types: real mobile applications, mobile applications with artificially injected defects, and synthetic data.

• Abstract: Nowadays, research on GUI agents is a hot topic in the AI community. However, current research focuses on GUI task automation, limiting the scope of applications in various GUI scenarios. In this paper, we propose a formalized and comprehensive environment to evaluate the entire process of automated GUI Testing (GTArena), offering a fair, standardized environment for consistent operation of diverse multimodal large language models. We divide the testing process into three key subtasks: test intention generation, test task execution, and GUI defect detection, and construct a benchmark dataset based on these to conduct a comprehensive evaluation. It evaluates the performance of different models using three data types: real mobile applications, mobile applications with artificially injected defects, and synthetic data, thoroughly assessing their capabilities in this relevant task. Additionally, we propose a method that helps researchers explore the correlation between the performance of multimodal language large models in specific scenarios and their general capabilities in standard benchmark tests. Experimental results indicate that even the most advanced models struggle to perform well across all sub-tasks of automated GUI Testing, highlighting a significant gap between the current capabilities of Autonomous GUI Testing and its practical, real-world applicability. This gap provides guidance for the future direction of GUI Agent development. Our code is available at https://github.com/ZJU-ACES-ISE/ChatUITest.

  We propose a Retrieval-Augmented GUI Generation (RAGG) approach, integrated with an LLM-based GUI retrieval re-ranking and filtering mechanism. In addition, we adapt Prompt Decomposition (PDGG) and Self-Critique (SCGG) for GUI generation. Our evaluation, which encompasses over 3,000 GUI annotations from over 100 crowd-workers with UI/UX experience, shows that SCGG, in contrast to PDGG and RAGG, can lead to more effective GUI generation.
