Mobile software testing tutorials
This talk introduces the core accessibility affordances on the Android platform and illustrate some common developer pitfalls related to accessibility. You’ll learn about the new Android Accessibility Test Framework and its integration into the Espresso and Robolectric testing frameworks. Finally, you’ll learn how easy it is to add automated accessibility checking to your your existing Android project tests.
Using patterns of yore (like Martin Fowler’s supervising controller, effective use of presenters and view model state), this presentation discusses the everyday really annoying impediments to user interface(UI) testing. You will learn what parts of the UI need testing and effective ways of testing them.
Software robots, such as Monkey can be used to test Android applications without much manual effort. There are several such tools proposed in academia whose goal is to automatically generate test input to drive Android applications.
The promise of end-to-end (E2E) software testing — complex, real-world test scenarios from the point of view of and end user — is appealing. Many attempts have been made over the years at automating large parts of the software testing and release processes, yet most of these efforts ended up in bitter and hard learned lessons about the inherent challenges of the whole approach.
When you develop applications, it is hard to ignore mobile devices. Testing mobile applications provides however some additional challenges than don’t exist for desktop or web applications. In this article, Kostyantyn Kharchenko explains some of the specific challenges that you should include in your mobile testing plans.
In a perfect software development world, you have all the time and the resources available to test every aspect of your mobile apps. In reality, the time and resources for software testing are limited. In his book “Tap Into Mobile Application Testing“, Jonathan Kohl discusses how to define a strategy for mobile testing projects.
Some organizations have published recently reports on the status and the trend of the software testing domain. We have aggregated the main results of these reports in this article to give you an overview of the current software testing issues and practices.
