Mobile testing types and approaches

1. Functional testing

Functional software testing ensures that this application, good, functioning, correctly. This type of test focuses on the main objectives and application streams, ensuring that all its features are responsive and meet specifications.


Therefore 6-7 times more expensive to obtain new customers rather than keeping existing, unlocking Silence is key. "- Thinkjar.


In addition to specific functions of cellular applications, there are other scenarios that must be tested to limit errors, including but are not limited to checks if:


Application install and launch correctly

Users can register and enter

Text box and button function properly

Push rendering notification correctly

2. Use of usability

Known as user experience testing, testing usability checks the user-friendly method of this application in terms of ease of use and intuitive. Ideally, testing the use of rotating around the entire customer experience driven by applications with insights that include identification of bugs and recommendations for how to improve customer experience, both in and out of the application.


Engineers, marketers and products Everyone wants to test whether the experience "end-to-end" application is world class. For this reason, it is important for testing the usefulness of applications that must be done with real people, on real devices to identify and correct usability problems before the application release.


This type of testing is more art than science and requires the use of the QA tester skills to facilitate tests and capture insights that reflect the actual users or customers.


Keep in mind as follows:


Good layout and design

Intuitive

Time responds

Do you know most users prefer applications launched in two to three seconds after they open the application? Because testing is subjective usability, you must understand the target of end users and their preferences. Consider asking them to test the product itself.


Other best practices for usability testing include:


Wise settings the usability test script and feedback questionnaire.

Integration of usability questionnaires in the test cycle so that testers understand the usability testing instructions, can access online questionnaires and provide feedback as part of their testing assignments.

Analysis of results and summaries of feedback with insight and recommendations that can be followed up to enhance the overall customer experience.

3. Testing compatibility


In particular, you must know if:


This application is compatible with different operating systems and various versions (iOS, Android, Windows, etc.)

Good performing applications with various networks and parameters (bandwidth, operating speed, etc.)

This application is compatible with different browsers (Google, Firefox, Safari, etc.)

This application is compatible with different devices (screen size, data storage, etc.)

There are also two types of compatibility testing that need to be considered:

Retreat: test the behavior of cellular applications with longer software versions

Continue: Test the behavior of cellular applications with new ones - including beta - software

4. Performance testing and load

Performance testing checks how well the cellular application performs under a particular workload. These tests are important to ensure your application is not damaged.
