Interview on TV for Testers

May 7, 2018August 29, 2016 by Daniel

A couple of weeks ago I was interviewed by Lalit Bhamare on his page TV for Testers. Lalit created a new series called techno talks and we recorded the first episode together. We talked about mobile testing, challenges in this area and how solve them. During the interview I mentioned lots of very useful resources which you can find on the TV for Testers page. Have fun watching the videos and I highly recommend to keep an eye on the new series, there will be more testing people interviewed. I am really looking forward to it.

Efficient Test Coverage for Mobile Apps – Brian Hamilton

May 7, 2018August 9, 2016 by Daniel

At the start of my testing career ten years ago, I chose to tackle the challenge of mobile device test coverage. At the time, I tested multiple apps that had been developed for BlackBerry devices. Each carrier in North America had their own set of BlackBerry devices with their own unique version of the BlackBerry OS. It was important to verify that the app functioned properly on both GSM and CDMA carriers, so testing one hardware/OS combination on one network would not be enough as there were multiple screen sizes, not to mention multiple versions of the OS on the same hardware. The combinations were endless and it was quickly realized that, without a QA team of a hundred people and an endless and varied supply of hardware, we were going to have to make some tough decisions about where to focus our testing.

Today, this problem is even more evident. With literally thousands of hardware/OS combinations of Android devices, it’s just not feasible to test each of them and expect to release a product in a timely fashion.

7 Considerations To Achieve The Best Test Coverage

Let’s assume you are developing a mobile app for Android and iOS. Where do you start when it comes to identifying the hardware/OS combinations to focus on? I have identified seven things to think about when working to maximize your test resources.
