Android Application Testing
http://www.mobilepundits.com/
Android Operating System

In parallel to the iOS platform, Android
is one of the most profit making mobile
operating system today. Though Apple is
the most dominant player in US and
other regions of the world, Android has
already proved its worth by leveraging a
large customer base all around the

world.

Android Apps + Testing


Researchers were always successful in developing a tool to help

penetration testers better understand vulnerabilities of Android application
by analyzing how programs act at runtime.


Today's apps are being used in situations and environments that traditional
testing methods never anticipated.



But with this flexibility comes new responsibilities for testing the

"goodness" of applications in real-time situations.
http://www.mobilepundits.com/Outsource_Mobile_Testing.html
There are 10 things to consider if you are developing
apps that have to function with outside "things,"
environments and usability challenges that you can't

readily foresee in your test lab

http://www.mobilepundits.com/Outsource_Mobile_Testing.html
http://www.mobilepundits.com/Outsource_Mobile_Testing.html
1. Think about how people will use the
application


An application that comes packaged on a consumer-grade laptop or

notebook for a police squad car will not withstand the rigors of
high-speed chases and constant bangs and knocks.


Part of the application testing strategy, if you are developing for
situations like this, should include the testing of the robustness of
the device itself in adverse operating conditions.

http://www.mobilepundits.com/Outsource_Mobile_Testing.html
2. Consider environmental conditions


It doesn't do anyone any good if an end user tries to place a consumer-

grade device in a freezer to monitor temperatures.


Ruggedized handheld devices are especially designed for work in extreme
cold conditions.



This is a case where it is important to know the environments that users
are going to use their mobile.

3. Develop a comprehensive test
plan with a checklist for usability


Eighty percent of end user acceptance of an app comes down to usability
(over features and functions).



Yet interestingly, an IT test plan is usually the reverse (80 percent
features/functions and 20 percent usability).

http://www.mobilepundits.com/Outsource_Mobile_Testing.html
4.


Actively engage users in testing

Engaging users in testing (especially for usability and fit for environment)

ensures that there are no surprises from the user side when the app goes
into production.


It also ensures user signoff and buy-in for the app and an ongoing
collaborative relationship with the end business unit as you enhance the
app over time.

http://www.mobilepundits.com/Outsource_Mobile_Testing.html
5.


Engage users up front in app design

Many IT application developers now get users involved at the very

beginning of application design, especially when it comes to designing the
application interface.


It's a good practice, because it provides a working blueprint of user

interface requirements that your test plan can be linked into.


It also puts the users (and not IT) in charge of designing the "look" of the
app.

http://www.mobilepundits.com/Outsource_Mobile_Testing.html
6.

Prototype


As soon as developers have a working

model of an app, they should sit down
with end users and demonstrate both
the user interface and how data flows
into and out of the interface.

http://www.mobilepundits.com/Outsource_Mobile_Testing.html
7. Build scalability into your app -- and
test for it


Especially for Internet and mobile devices, app add-ons such as rich media

should be anticipated to grow.


Your design plan should anticipate this (e.g., scalability for storage, CPU,

bandwidth) -- and your test plan should test for it.


By sizing for future expansion, you can avoid costly app redesign.

http://www.mobilepundits.com/Outsource_Mobile_Testing.html
8. Include security and lockdown


Data encryption, conformance with security standards, and locate and

lockdown ability when devices get lost are all important test points for
mobile devices.


IT usually gets the first two, but the locate and lockdown is often missed.



It shouldn't be.

http://www.mobilepundits.com/Outsource_Mobile_Testing.html
9.


Use standard APIs for app interfaces

One of the worst nightmares for application integration (and almost all

apps are integrated with various data repositories, other apps, etc.) is the
development of custom interfaces that have to be changed over time -- and
which in turn create maintenance work on every other app they touch.


You can save a lot of time in regression testing by sticking with standard
APIs.

http://www.mobilepundits.com/Outsource_Mobile_Testing.html
10.


Make testing everybody's business

It's also good to include input (and checkout) from the help desk, which

understands as well as anyone in IT what the constant user pain points are.


It's also a good idea to split your QA team into two camps: one side that

tests the app for technical "goodness“.

http://www.mobilepundits.com/Outsource_Mobile_Testing.html
Offshore App Testing


Even though you have seen several advantages written above, there are

disadvantages too.


It still manages to bring fruitful results for companies and freelancers.



Outsourcing has been quite famous in the IT industry. Large-scale firms hire
the services of smaller firms because of myriad reasons.
