Hands-On Mobile App Testing is available

It’s done! My book “Hands-On Mobile App Testing” is available since today. Further information can be found here: http://www.handsonmobileapptesting.com/.

Together with a colleague, I had the chance to build up a mobile testing strategy from scratch. We evaluated several test automation tools to see which one fits best in our software development lifecycle.

Of course we failed with some of them, but in the end the whole team, the company and our customers were happy.
