Mobile User Expectations

Mobile users have far higher expectations of mobile apps when compared to other software like browser applications. The majority of reports and surveys state that nearly 80% of users delete an app after using it for the first time! The top four reasons for deletion are always bad design and usability, loading time and crashes immediately after installation.

▪Nearly 60% of users will delete an app that requires registration.▪47% of consumers expect to load in 3 seconds or less.▪50% of user will delete an app due to crashes.

Types of Mobile Testing

Mobile App Lifecycle

➢ Mobile applications once developed and tested ready for deployment are directly submitted to “Application Stores” of the OS providers for their approval.

➢ Once approved the Mobile applications are available for download from the respective OS providers “Application Store”.

➢ End customers can directly download your application from these “Application stores” on their mobile devices to use the same.

Types of Testing

Agility Testing

Agility: Best practices on Agile including automation focus and effective intraday QA practices form the core of the solution

Types of testing : Testing includes Acceptance testing at build level, Functional , Interruption (NFR) and Regression at Sprint level and also Release Regression

Continuous automation and Regression: Automation will be leveraged to execute acceptance tests at build level and regression tests at sprint level and across sprints

Devices/ Platforms coverage: Optimal set of devices have been considered /assumed to ensure adequate coverage in the target platforms

Quality management: Best in class methods for leveraging Test management processes and Tools best suited to agile needs.

Secure Mobile Lab Facility

• PCs , MAC machines & different mobile platforms connected to appropriate server for applications

• Necessary Wi-Fi router, SIM cards, with internet connection• Necessary firewall and Ethernet switch for networking to specific WAN/Networks• The networking could be an isolated network

Environment

• Controlled wireless with limited range with security protected environment• Have firewalls and switches within lab premises• All internet access to be monitored with limited connectivity• Antivirus and security software on devices for enhanced security

Network Security

• Authorized entry with usage of swipe/similar means for usage of the LAB depending on need.

• Entry and exit recording in physical /electronic means to keep track• Restrict usage of personal mobile phones, USB drives or other media
