Abstract: Mobile navigation service is an important and popular location-based service,which help to recommend routes to mobile users to reach their destinations.Because of various navigation strategies and many complex situations which are related to modern mobile navigation service,it is difficult to validate the mobile navigation service.In this paper,an approach was presented to prioritize test cases for the regression testing of mobile navigation service.The approach proposes some prioritizing metrics based on navigation graph complexity theory.To evaluate the proposed approach,this paper conducted a case study on a popular navigation software.Comparing with random test approach,the proposed prio-ritizing test approach helps to improve test efficiency.

Key words: Mobile App testing, Mobile navigation service, Prioritizing test cases, Regression testing
