Best Practices Testing Process of Mobile
Application Testing

• Mobile apps are a significant part of our lives
  we use them in our daily activities, be it the
  workplace, leisure time, studying, or acquiring
  knowledge. They are used by quadrillions
  populations worldwide. Hence, it is crucial to
  test them rigorously and extensively before
  deploying them on the app store.
• Mobile Application Testing seems challenging and
  complex, which can be simplified by following the
  best practices and testing process. We will walk
  you through them in this blog.

What is Mobile Application Testing?

• Let us first quickly walk you through what Mobile
  Application Testing is. It is the process in
  which Mobile Application Testers scrutinize
  Mobile App performance, functionality, usability,
  security, stability, and reliability.
• It helps Mobile App Developers detect bugs
  glitches and fix them to make the App robust
  before deploying it on the app store. Mobile App
  Testing can be conducted manually or automated to
  save time, effort, cost, and human involvement.
• It is highly recommended to partner with a Mobile
  Application Testing Service Provider, as they are
  proficient in performing Mobile App Testing. At
  Calidad Infotech, we provide premier quality
  Mobile Application Testing Services to ensure
  speed accuracy for your Mobile Apps.

Best Practices of Mobile App Testing

• We recommend the following practices to ideally
  perform Mobile App Testing

Defining Testing Scope

• Every Mobile Tester follows different practices
  and approaches some focus on the front end, and
  others on the back end. For instance, you cant
  enhance camera quality or permissions in Android
  mobile versions below 6.0. Hence, it is pivotal
  to define a sensible, practical, and performable
  testing scope.

Fragmentation

• Mobile applications have numerous fragmentations,
  such as OS, device, and browser. For this, Mobile
  QA Testers must run mobile apps on several
  devices, OS, and models. They can also give
  access to cloud-based platforms to perform
  testing on real devices. You can use either
  manual or automated methods for testing.

App Permissions Testing

• It is a common mistake testers commit, as they
  overlook the number of permissions required by
  the app to perform specific functions. Users
  might get frustrated due to more permissions
  asked by mobile apps, leading them to uninstall
  them.
• Hence, mobile app testers must perform different
  permissions, which the app will request at
  different stages. Unnecessary ones must be
  eliminated to enhance the users experience.

Cross-Platform Testing

• It is another practice that mobile app testers
  must follow to fix the compatibility issues of
  the mobile app. To achieve this, testers must
  test compatibility on several devices, models,
  operating systems, browsers, networks, and
  environments to ensure users can seamlessly use
  the application.

Connectivity-Related Testing

• Mobile Applications performance significantly
  depends on users network connectivity (strong
  and weak). It is another practice that testers
  must follow before the application deployment on
  the app store.
• Testers must check app performance in different
  mobile app network ranges to ensure it works
  smoothly without hampering user experience. They
  can also use automation tools for network
  simulation, increasing efficiency and reducing
  human involvement to speed up testing.

Mobile Application Testing Process

• Mobile Developers and Testers follow numerous
  processes and procedures to conduct Mobile App
  Testing. We recommend the following process to
  achieve desired results

Step 1 Gathering and Preparation of Test Cases

• Before the testing process commencement, you must
  gather (list) test cases you want to get tested.
  To achieve this, you must define a strategy by
  precisely outlining the test scenarios you wish
  to test, the purpose of running them, and their
  expected results.
• For Test Cases Preparation, we recommend the
  following two approaches, and you can use any
• Business-Based Testing to determine mobile app
  functionality from the business perspective
• Requirement-Based Testing to ascertain the
  performance of mobile app features
• You can bifurcate your test cases into the
  following two categories depending on the test
  type you want to execute
• Functional Testing (Integration, Unit,
  Regression, User-Interface, and Beta Testing)
• Non-Functional Testing (Performance, Load,
  Reliability, Security, Usability, and API Testing)

Step 2 Methods

• After defining and writing test cases and
  scenarios, you must determine whether to perform
  them manually or automate them by eliminating
  human involvement.
• We recommend Automated Testing if test cases are
  small, need to be run frequently, testing devices
  for fragmentation, and when the test has an
  expected result. Manual Testing is ideal when you
  are testing several systems continuously.
• If you want to perform Manual Testing, the
  upfront cost is minimal. However, you must build
  a competent Manual Testers team to conduct tests.
  For Automated Testing, you must invest time in
  selecting tools for testing. Please ensure tools
  support different platforms, have rich features,
  and the test cases are reusable.

• We recommend the combination of both testing
  methods for the agile approach. Through manual
  testing, you will determine which test cases are
  repetitive and can be performed without human
  involvement by automating them to reduce time,
  cost, and effort.
• At Calidad Infotech, we suggest to our clients a
  blend of manual and automated Mobile App Testing
  methods for the best outcomes.

Step 3 Conducting Performance, Usability, and
Beta Testing

• We recommend conducting Performance Testing to
  analyze the performance of the apps features. It
  tests mobile application load stress testing,
  detecting errors glitches slowing down its
  performance and other crucial components. It is
  carried out from the end users perspective to
  get an upfront overview of mobile app efficiency
  post-deployment.
• By performing Usability Testing, mobile app
  developers will determine which app features are
  highly accepted by end users and which are not.
  Accordingly, you can enhance the usability
  performance of the well-accepted features and
  remove the less-liked ones. Usability Testing
  will also help to check whether features are
  functioning correctly.
• Through Beta Testing, developers will ascertain
  whether the included features of the mobile app
  are beneficial from the end users viewpoint.

Step 4 Security and Compliance Testing

• It is crucial to conduct Security Compliance
  Testing to ensure Mobile App meets specific
  Industry Quality, Safety, and Compliance
  Standards before launching it on the app store.
  We recommend getting your Mobile Application
  Certification Testing done according to the
  following standards

https//calidadinfotech.com/
15

• GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) Rigid
  Security Guidelines to protect end users
  personal data
• HIPPA (Health Insurance Portability and
  Accountability Act) Security Privacy
  Regulations to protect patients sensitive health
  information for Healthcare Mobile Apps
• FFIEC (Federal Financial Institutions Examination
  Council) Security Guidelines, Uniform Practices,
  and Principles for Financial and Banking related
  Mobile Apps
• PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security
  Standard) A set of Policies Procedures to
  protect against misuse of cardholders personal
  information for Online Payments Transactions
  Mobile Apps

Step 5 Launching the Final (Ready) Version

• After completing all testing and development
  stages, mobile app testers must run the app one
  last time to assess if there are no bugs or
  errors. And the mobile app is functioning
  correctly on their back-end servers before
  deployment on the App Store and Google Play Store.
