##Open Source Code Package

The Application Resource Optimizer (ARO) is a diagnostic tool for analyzing mobile web application performance developed by AT&T. ARO allows you to automatically profile an application to optimize performance, make battery utilization more efficient, and reduce network impact.

The ARO Data Collector is the component of the ARO application that captures the data traffic of a mobile device and stores that information in trace files that can be analyzed using the ARO Data Analyzer.

The ARO Data Analyzer is the component of the ARO application that evaluates the trace data collected from an application and generates statistical and analytical results based on recommended best practices.

This Open Source Code Package contains all of the code needed to build both of these ARO components.

Version:
ARO Data Analyzer 3.2
ARO Data Collector 3.1.1.7

What’s new in Release 3.2? (8/13/14)

  • ARO Analyzer Diagnostics Chart Enhancements
    The following enhancements have been made to the ARO Analyzer, allowing you to select the set of data that you view on the Diagnostics Chart more precisely:

    • On the TCP/UDP Flows table, a check box has been added in the header of the table so that you can select/deselect all of the TCP/UDP flows.
    • Check boxes have been added to each row in the table so that you can select/deselect individual TCP/UDP flows.
    • A Refresh button has been added on the right side of the Diagnostics Chart so that the graph can be updated after TCP/UDP flows have been selected or deselected.
    • The Remote Port column has been expanded into two columns; Remote IP Endpoint and Remote Port Number.
    • A Byte Count column has been added that displays the total byte count for each TCP/UDP flow.
    • A Domain Name column has been added to the Select Applications/IPs dialog box that is accessed from the View menu.

  • Downloads Option Added to the Help Menu
    You can now download the ARO Installer and the ARO Collector App for Android from developer.att.com/ARO, by just opening ARO and clicking on the Downloads option on the Help menu.

What are the known issues in Release 3.2?

  • ARO Analyzer Diagnostics Chart:

    • Alarm Triggers are not displayed in the Diagnostics chart of the ARO Analyzer for traces collected from the HTC One X.
    • The type of Burst may be reported differently, for the same testing scenario steps, on the Diagnostics Chart for traces captured from an Android device and an iPhone.
    • When a TCP/UDP flow is deselected and the Diagnostics Chart is refreshed more than three times, the deselected packet information displays on the chart and the burst length changes.

  • AT&T ARO Windows 8 Data Collector: The current version of the AT&T ARO Windows 8 Data Collector (version 2.2.1) does not support trace collection from Windows 8.1.

  • ARO Analyzer Best Practices "Resize images for Mobile": Due to limitations in the structure of pcap files, the results for the “Resize Images for Mobile” test will appear differently for ARO trace files and pcap files.

  • Set ADB Path Option: When using the Set ADB Path option on the File menu, the Cancel button does not work correctly, it saves the path name that is entered in the dialog.

  • • iOS Traces: Some devices may not record video during a trace due to hardware limitations. For these devices, use the USB Video feature to record a video for the trace.

What are the Other known issues from previous releases?

  • Video Sync/Video Correlation feature: This feature allows you to sync externally captured video to PCAP data by placing it in the trace folder. When using this feature in ARO 2.3, note the following:

    • Please ensure that the video duration is at least as long as the trace duration.
    • Avoid clicking in the Diagnostics Chart when the video is playing; the timing of response may be affected.
    • Certain 64 bit Windows 7 computers may have unexpected/random video sync issues. If this occurs, Re-sync the trace to the video.
    • Do not use a High Definition (HD) video file with the Video Sync feature.
    • Avoid disconnecting the USB cable during the collection of a trace, it may cause unexpected behavior.
    • On a Mac computer, the Trace Summary notification window may appear distorted. This will be fixed in a future release.

  • USB Video Feature: In some cases, the following notification may appear incorrectly when the trace is completed: "Unexpected error accessing device SD card. ADB Connection Error" When this occurs, the trace is intact and the error message can be disregarded.

  • Recording video in a trace: Some devices may not record video during a trace due to hardware limitations. For these devices, use the USB Video feature to record a video for the trace.

  • Loading a trace: While loading a trace in the ARO Analyzer, an Out of Memory (OOM) notification (application heap size issue) error may occur, or the message: “ARO Analyzer has reached the maximum memory heap size. Close ARO Analyzer and try again or increase ARO Analyzer’s heap size. Also consider collecting multiple, smaller, more isolated traces.” may appear. This can also occur when the same trace is re-loaded.

  • AT&T ARO Data Collector support for iOS: The following issues can occur on the specified iPhone devices if they are disconnected from a Mac running OS X Mountain Lion 10.8 and OS X Mavericks 10.9 while a trace is being collected:

    • On the iPhone 5c, the ARO Data Analyzer may hang and display an empty pop-up, requiring the Analyzer to be closed.
    • On the iPhone 5 and iPhone 4s, the error message “No data Packet captured” may be displayed. The correct error message is “Device got disconnected”.
    • Traces collected from an iPhone connected to a Mac running OS X Mavericks 10.9 are not supported by the AT&T ARO Analyzer when it is running on a Windows OS.

##Compiling and Building ARO The following sections describe the basic steps for compiling and building the ARO Data Collector and ARO Data Analyzer. For more detailed information, see the ARO Compilation and Build Guide.

###ARO Data Collector This section describes how to setup the development environment, and then compile and build the ARO Data Collector into an Android Application Package (APK) using the Android SDK and Apache Ant. The APK file can then be installed on a device via the Android Debug Bridge (ADB).

Note: In order for the ARO Data Collector to be fully functional, it must be installed on a rooted device.

Setup the Development Environment

  1. Download and setup the Android SDK. Go to the Android Developers website http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html, download the Android package for your platform, and follow the steps to setup the Android SDK.

  2. Add additional components. Follow the installation instructions at http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing.html, especially the step: Adding Platforms and Other Components.

  3. Download Apache ANT. Go to http://ant.apache.org and follow the download instructions.

Compile and Build the ARO Data Collector

  1. Checkout the ARO Data Collector source code from the ARODataCollector folder to a local folder.

  2. Update the project.properties to match your local configuration and generate a build.xml by using the following command syntax:

     android update project --name <project_name> --target <target_ID> --path <path_to_your_project>

    Note: ARO Data Collector supports Android 2.1 and above, so the target id should be set to a value greater than 2.1. In the following example, it is set to 7.

     android update project --name ARODataCollector --target 7 --path ../ARODataCollector

  3. Build the ARO Data Collector project for debug using the command "ant debug", or for release using the command "ant release".

  4. Transfer the ARO Data Collector APK file to a rooted device using the ADB, with the command: "adb aro"
