Hi All,

As some of you know I am working in a mobile phone company.

Here all Dev and Testing people loose lot of time in flashing(+)and flexing(++) the phone. (+) flashing - burning the firmware (++)flexing - setting the configuration for the phone. This ideally eats half an hour time for all here since we need to flash first and flex a few files.

So as a Tester half the day for me goes in doing this.

I am planning to automate the flash and flex process using PERL ( of course ).

Now let me tell you the requirement -

1) I have the flash files and flex files in a folder.

2) Flash files can be identified by the extension of the file ..something like .shx, and flex files can be identified with extension .hs .

3)I have the phone connected to one of the USB port.

4) A program SGH.exe does the process of burning the firmware (.shx - flashing).

5) I want to open the file with SGH.exe , a UI is seen where i there is an option to Start ( burning or flashing )

6) There is a status bar which finally shows PASS or FAIL and if FAIL it shows the error.

7) I need to run the start which will flash and open the flex files .hs with the same SGH.exe and again start to flex.

My thoughts :

1) Opening the file with the mentioned exe isnt a big hassle , esp when i am thinking in perl.

2) As SGH.exe does not have a command line interface Win32::GUITest maybe a good option ( updated after making a blunder here ) Well if i finish this automation , half a day more i can spend on Perl monks monastery.

If someone has already done something similar or has a way to do it , let me know.

Regards prad
