The invention discloses an application software testing method and system. The method comprises the steps of calling a first script corresponding to a testing command in a plurality of pre-stored scripts according to the testing command after the testing command is received, and starting and controlling tested application software to execute a corresponding function by the first script; and outputting a corresponding testing result to a database by the first script according to a running state when the first script controls the tested application software to execute the corresponding function. According to the method and the system, the tested application software is controlled by calling the written script, and the corresponding testing result is output to the database to serve as a result output identifier according to the running state when the script automatically controls the tested application software to execute the corresponding function, so that automated testing of the tested application software by testing application software based on a mobile phone as a testing terminal is realized, the accuracy and stability of application software testing are effectively improved, and the testing efficiency is enhanced.
