Study Notes
Mobile World - Business and Technology Drivers
- Mobile analytics data can be used to inform test strategy and plan. Data sources (geography, platform, OS version, device type distribution) help select and prioritize device types for testing.
- Different business models exist for mobile applications, including freemium, advertisement-based, transaction-based, fee-based, and enterprise applications. In-app purchases can be combined with some models.
- Common mobile device types include basic phones, feature phones, smartphones, tablets, and companion devices (e.g., wearables, IoT).
- Mobile applications are categorized as native, browser-based, or hybrid. Native apps use platform-specific SDKs, and browser-based apps use web technologies; hybrid apps combine both.
- Mobile application architecture can be client-side (thin/fat client) or server-side (single/multi-tier). Connection types include Wi-Fi, cellular data, NFC, and Bluetooth. Data synchronization methods can be store-and-forward, push, pull, synchronous, and asynchronous.
- Risks in mobile application testing include device proliferation, business model suitability, device variety, availability of devices, new technologies and platforms, installation/upgrade processes, network coverage, device-specific testing requirements, and various app types and user groups.
- Mitigation strategies for mobile application testing concern device selection, platform selection (limiting testing to major platforms), technology support, leveraging remote device access or crowd testing, and suitable testing methodologies.
