This project aims to automate the testing of stylus touch pens with Chromebook using a human motion robot (HMR). Currently, stylus pens or any other touchpad-related test cases take much longer time and are more expensive when going through lab testing. Developing and conducting these tests via a human motion robot will save half the cost and accelerate the testing time from 13 hours to 15 minutes. The objectives of this project include evaluating and assessing the pass/fail of stylus test cases, developing automation scripts for onboarding the HMR, and implementing the HMR’s testing lifecycle to run and evaluate test results. A three-step evaluation procedure has been proposed, and the onboarding automation scripts and the HMR lifecycle have been implemented. Evaluation results show successful evaluations with directions on future work aiming to improve and scale up the proposed approach.
