Android Tool for Mac

May 7, 2018September 7, 2015 by Daniel

If you are a mobile tester or a mobile developer you may not have the problem to create screenshots or videos from the current develop state of your app. You will probably use tools like adb for Android or QuickTime for iOS in order to capture a video. However, this is not the case for prodct owners, scrum master, mobile designer or any other non-technical colleague on the project. They may have not installed the mobile development tools like Android Studio or Xcode.

Thanks to my colleague, Daniel Guse, who pointed me to the tool Android Tool for Mac. With the help of this tool it is very easy to capture screenshots or videos from Android applications right from the desktop.

Features of Android Tool for Mac

The tool is offering the following features:

Reading Recommendations # 32

May 7, 2018September 2, 2015 by Daniel

The 32nd issue of the reading recommendation contains 6 posts. This issue contains again an article from Katrina Clokie about “Accessibility & Usability Testing Pathway”. Katrina collected again very useful information about the topic of accessibility and usability testing. Her post is similar to Mobile Testing Pathway (katrinatester.blogspot.de/2015/08/mobile-testing-pathway.html) which was part of the last reading recommendations. I really like this format and I hope there will be more posts like this.
Furthermore, this issue contains post about topics like “Rhythm of Testing: Hanging with the Cool Kids and Self-worth”, “Software Testing is not for Attention Seekers”, “How a bug in Visual Studio 2015 exposed my source code on GitHub and cost me $6,500 in a few hours” and there is a post from the Google Blog announcing that Android Wear now works with iPhones.

Enjoy reading the posts and send me posts that are worth reading and I will mention you and link to your social links or blog.
