“…After downloading the data, KnowMe can replay the data for context simulation on a PC. Based on KnowMe, Bobek et al [14] proposed a context analysis tool called ContextViewer for testers to visualise and to preprocess mobile sensor data. However, ContextViewer cannot perform context simulation for mobile applications.…”

“…Combinatorial optimisation is a promising supportive technique to find the optimal design choice, rather than an exhaustive search. Also, at the very early stage of development, conducting context simulation can help developers design and evaluate context models [14]. In this sense, a desired feature is the evaluation of context models via early-stage context simulation.…”

Equipped with an abundance of small-scale microelectromechanical sensors, modern mobile devices such as smartphones and smartwatches can now offer context-aware services to users in mobile environments. Although advances in mobile context-aware applications have made our everyday environments increasingly intelligent, these applications are prone to bugs that are highly difficult to reproduce and repair. Compared to conventional computer software, mobile context-aware applications often have more complex structures to process a wide variety of dynamic context data in specific scenarios. Accordingly, researchers have proposed diverse context simulation techniques to enable low-cost and effective tests instead of conducting costly and time-consuming real-world experiments. This article aims to give a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art context simulation methods for testing mobile context-aware applications. In particular, this article highlights the technical distinctions and commonalities in previous research conducted across multiple disciplines, particularly at the intersection of software testing, ubiquitous computing, and mobile computing. This article also discusses how each method can be implemented and deployed by testing tool developers and mobile application testers. Finally, this article identifies several unexplored issues and directions for further advancements in this field.

“…Prior work attempted to alleviate this problem from many aspects. ContextViewer [3] is a context management tool that visualises and preprocesses historical contextual data from mobile devices. Developers can select relevant contextual information using ContextViewer to replay context with other tools.…”

“…To enable the testing of mobile context-aware applications, researchers have proposed context management tools, testing techniques (e.g., white-box and black-box testing) and platforms [3,10,12]. Despite numerous efforts in previous work, a systematic testing framework supporting heterogeneous data sources across multiple devices is still lacked.…”

Mobile crowdsourcing applications often run in dynamic environments. Due to limited time and budget, developers of mobile crowdsourcing applications usually cannot completely test their prototypes in real world situations. We describe a data integration technique for developers to validate their design in prototype testing. Our approach constructs the intended context by combining real-time, historical and simulated data. With correct context-aware design, mobile crowdsourcing applications presenting crowdsourcing questions in relevant context to users are likely to obtain high response quality.
