Mobile testing – is it similar to application testing?

                 The answer seems obvious, or does it? After all, the application on a
                 mobile device has the same functionality as the application on a standard
                 desktop computer or laptop. Well, the difference is that mobile apps have to
                 be tested for their non-functional aspects (such as usability) on mobile
                 devices and not just primarily focused on functional testing.
                 There are a number of challenges that are a direct result of the unique
                 features of mobile devices and wireless networks:
                 Mobile context – interaction between the users, applications and the
                 surrounding environment that may distract user’s attention

                       Connectivity – slow and unreliable wireless network connection with
                       low bandwidth is a common hindrance for mobile applications
                       Screen size – physical constraints of mobile devices, especially small
                       screen sizes
                       Display resolution – display capability of mobile devices supports
                       much less display resolution (usually 640×480 pixels or lower)
                       compared to PCs
                       Processing capability – computational power and memory capacity of
                       mobile devices lag far behind PCs
                       Data input – providing input to small devices is difficult and limits users
                       effectiveness in entering data
                 Most challenges listed above are contextual in nature and they need to be
                 factored in properly while performing mobile testing. Most likely, testing has
                 to be done in real-time environment and not in a laboratory environment
                 towards minimizing the potential effects of usability in the field.
