Title: Automated Usage-based Mobile Application Testing via Artifact Reuse  
 
Abstract: Writing and maintaining UI tests for mobile applications is both time-consuming and tedious. While decades of research have led to automated methods for UI test generation, these methods have largely focused on identifying crashes or maximizing code coverage. However, recent studies have emphasized the significance of usage-based tests targeting specific app functionalities and use cases. My research introduces novel automated testing techniques that make use of existing artifacts, such as tests from similar applications or video recordings of app operations. These approaches help us move closer to achieving the goal of automated usage-based testing of mobile applications.
