METHOD FOR CREATING AN APPROXIMATION GRAPH RELATING TO THE BEHAVIOUR OF THE MAN-MACHINE INTERFACE OF AN APPLICATION

摘要

The invention relates to an approximation graph relating to the behaviour of the man-machine interface of an application, which is automatically obtained by the inventive method and can be defined in the following way: the nodes (Nl, N2, N3) of the graph represent sets of screen objects encoding screens to be displayed during the running of the application and characterised by a common property; a screen object cannot be represented only by a single node; and the oriented arcs (a) of the graph connecting an origin node (Nl) to a destination node (N3) illustrate the possibility of a transition from a screen described by an object of an origin to a screen described by an object of a destination following the occurrence of an event.
