Why Testing required for mobile app:
Now a day’s mobile is a multi tasking device. At a time we are doing lots of work in the mobile like: when we are surfing net ,In between we get a call and SMS.
At present smart phone does not have enough ram for handling the entire thing at same time due to which your mobile may hang or your application may crash. The crash of the application is pathetic for the end user. As a result user will not be interested in using your application or website.
To prevent such situation, Testing is necessary part of any application either mobile desktop or website.
In the mobile so many things needs to resolve before releasing the App or website.
Now a day’s mobile application is not a small development task. Proper testing is necessary and app should be passing from different type of testing.
Type of Testing for mobile Application

1 Functional Testing- Functional testing ensures that the application is working as per the requirements. Most of the test conducted for this is driven by the user interface and call flows. Its application should be able to handle these interruptions by going into a suspended state and resuming afterwards.

2. Network carriers Testing- If your application is related to the mobile network provider of location wise. It should be tested well in all geographic location with multiple service provider. In this testing is performed to find out any glitches when a mobile application uses voice and/or data connection to perform some functions.
3. Performance Testing- In this testing we will check the how much me memory is consume by the application during using the app. Also check the  behavior of the application under certain conditions such as low battery, bad network coverage, low available memory, simultaneous access to application’s by multiple user.
4. Memory Leakage Testing- Memory leakage happens when a computer program or application is unable to manage the memory it is allocated resulting in poor performance of the application and the overall slowdown of the system. As mobile devices have significant constraints of available memory, memory leakage testing is crucial for the proper functioning of an application.
6. Compatibility testing- In the compatibility testing, we will test the application into the different browser or platform available into the market. In this testing verifies that the installation process goes smoothly without the user having to face any difficulty. This testing process covers installation, updating and uninstalling of an application.
All the APP or website should be backward or forward compatible of different version of browser or platform

Steps To Hunt the Bugs Successfully

By
The testers should catch the bugs in software that they’re testing. Testers should try to catch as several vital bugs as soon as possible. Catching the crucial bug earlier on Product-Life-Cycle can save the Projects from financial losses & mitigate the risks as compared for catching the same at a later stage in SDLC. Steps to hunt the bugs: Sometimes it’s useful to break the rules: The following test cases, which were predefined a tester can miss the bugs so it makes it impossible’s to provide the product i.e. 100 percent bug free. If you-follow pre-determined test cases you risks becoming blind to outside the bugs. A first secret is to check the functionality under the test. It’ll be an effective channel to discover the more bugs, because functionality is not generally covered by the test cases. Examine the patterns: You might have noticed that the bugs can be often met in the groups, one can call them-gregarious. The testing a new but the similar functionality...

Mobile Application Testing: Strategy for Development

By
There are a huge number of demands and lots of competitions in the mobile application industries. In that demands and competitions, the mobile application testing has become more important. The testing phase of the mobile application testing looks like evil between the creative process and excitement of new products in the market. According to the survey, “In US, on an average 2-3 hours per day people spends their time on smartphones and tablets. On that time, they spent 80% on mobile application and remaining 20% on web applications.” Few list of key factors for successful mobile application testing strategies are: Selection of Device for Testing : Before introducing the mobile application test activities, first select the devices for testing the application. Selection decision is very important because only devices can help to targets maximum numbers of the customers for accessing the application. There are two parts for device selection: §   Device Model ...
