3 Types of Mobile Applicati On

1. There are 3 main types of mobile applications: native apps designed for a specific device OS, mobile web apps that run in a browser, and hybrid apps that combine native and web technologies. 2. Testing mobile apps presents various challenges due to differences in hardware, operating systems, screen sizes/orientations, and wireless networks between devices. An effective testing strategy considers factors like device selection, test automation tools, test types, and network environments. 3. Emulators virtually mimic device hardware while simulators run on software alone. Taking screenshots and logs involves tools like DDMS on Android and connecting devices to computers for iOS.

• Apps which work in one hw may not work on another
hw
• Different os
• Device orientation - landscape/portrait mode
• Different mobile carriers -
• Different screen sizes-
• Teat in real time nw
• Different wireless communication technologies
Mobile application testing
strategy
• Factors to be considered are
• 1 device selection - simulator/physical device/os/sc
reen resolution
• 2 test automation - select automation tool
• 3 test types -functional, performance, security
• 4 network env - wifi/2g/3g/4g
• 5 carriers - carriers like verizon, Vodafone cdma
Emulator and simulator
• Android - emulator - virtual device - virtual device c
reated based on hw.

• Ios- simulator -virtual device - virtual device will be


created based on software
