in Questions And Answers

Hi,

I am very new to Hololens testing. I have installed the Hololens emulator. Now, what I would like to do is to Write automated tests to test one of our existing holographic apps.

Pl guide me achieve this. It would be helpful, if you can also guide me to write integration tests to test our app.

    What kind of automated tests? What exactly do you want to make sure works? What does the app do?

    Hi,

    By automated tests, I mean being able to simulate the entire app workflow starting from sign in, validating the signin.
    Being able to place the 3 D model and interact with the model etc..

    What I would like to achieve is
    1. Install the app on the emulator->Launch the app
    2. Identify the gameobjects->Interact with the gameObjects->Assert for the results

    What I have tried till now is Create a Console Project->Simulate a few gestures. I would like to do something similar to what UnityTestTools does..

    Try using the InputManager prefab from the Holotoolkit. It contains a few scripts that map air tap, camera movement, and user movement to keyboard keys. The controls aren't too difficult to figure out: WASD to move in space, use the mouse to change where your camera is facing, and hold down spacebar + click the left mouse button to air tap (and hold both to drag). You could write a script that simulated gestures with keypresses.

    Hi George,

    Thanks for the input. The app had been developed from Unity and built as a Windows holographic D3D solution.

    I am able to launch this application in VS 2015, and run on Emulator.
    Now, how do I start writing UI tests for this application? Is there a way to achieve this?
