Testing Mobile Applications

The traditional process of testing software can be lengthy and cumbersome. That’s especially true in mobile — there’s a wide variety of devices and features you need to account for with mobile app testing. Enter functional mobile test automation, which when properly planned and executed, can be a real time saver. It can also spare your app development team some real headaches later by catching errors in the code early in the process. Mobile check automation uses a series of programmed tests that check the expected behavior of the options to the particular outcomes. If the outcomes are aligned, you recognize that you’ve greatly reduced the possibilities of getting any bugs. If there’s a distinction, the QA team will determine the matter and therefore the development team can identify fixes — then the machine-driven tests are rerun before the app goes into production. This autom...

2019 is truly the ‘year of the mobile’. Mobile apps are maturing, consumer apps becoming smarter, and there is an increasing emphasis on the consumerization of enterprise apps. Slow, poor-performing and bug-riddled apps have no place in today’s smartphone. Clearly, mobile apps need to be tested thoroughly to ensure the features and functionalities of the application perform optimally. Given that almost all industries are leaning towards mobile apps (Gartner predicts that there will be over 268 billion mobile downloads in 2020 that will generate a revenue of USD $77 billion) to make interactions between them and their consumers faster and more seamless, the demand for mobile testing is on the upswing. In this diary post, we glance at 10 essential testing stages for mobile applications: Installation testing: Once the appliance is prepared, tests ought to conduct installation testing to make sure that the...
