To account for such demands, entering cloud mobile testing: transparency and mobility allow businesses and developers teams to optimize their mobile app testing pipeline while ensuring the application quality. What is Mobile Cloud Testing?Įver wonder why all your Instagram pictures still appear on your account regardless of the devices you use to log in? That’s the magic of the “cloud” – servers accessible through the internet with the ability to hold an unlimited amount of database and software. All the computing and storage happens online, independent from any local devices. Therefore users would only need a stable internet connection to access the data whenever, wherever.ĭeveloped from the same cloud technology, mobile cloud testing is when teams test the mobile application using an online cloud platform rather than on-premises. With cloud technology, teams can extensively perform functional testing, stress testings, phone model testing, OS version testing, load test, UI testing, bandwidth, latency testing, etc.Ĭloud testing extends many options, increasing the flexibility for testers to conduct their mobile testing.Regarding testing environments, device cloud (or mobile testing environments) offered through cloud technology is of extensive numbers and great variety.Aside from real mobile devices, testers can also test on virtual machines: simulators and emulators.
