Mobile applications either come pre-installed or can be installed from mobile software distribution platforms. Mobile devices have witnessed a phenomenal growth in the past few years. A study conducted by the Yankee Group [1] predicts the generation of $4.2 billion in revenue by 2013 through 7 billion U.S. smartphone app download Key Challenges in Mobile Application Testing[edit] Enterprise and Custom App Development.

Y Combinator-Backed Errplane Launches Comprehensive Performance Monitoring And Alert Service For Web Apps. Errplane, a new Y Combinator-backed service for monitoring performance, uptime and errors for any type of web application, has officially launched its service.

Y Combinator-Backed Errplane Launches Comprehensive Performance Monitoring And Alert Service For Web Apps

Currently, Errplane argues, developers need a number of different services like New Relic, Pingdom and Airbrake to effectively monitor their apps. Errplane unifies all of these functions into one single service, because, as the company’s CEO and co-founder Paul Dix told me last week, all of these separate tools ultimately rotate around the same goal you are trying to accomplish. About a third of the current Y Combinator class is already using the service, which Dix co-founded with Todd Persen, as well as a number of other companies, including Garry Tan’s PostHaven for Posterous exiles, VHX, Brewster, Amicus and RingRevenue. Across all of these beta customers, the system currently handles about 30 million data points per day. To get started, developers only have to insert a few lines of code and the system should be ready to go. Software Testing eKit.

Aurora. Testing Backbone applications with Jasmine and Sinon – Part 1 – Tinned Fruit - Aurora. Overview This is the first in a series of articles demonstrating how to test a Backbone.js application, employing the Jasmine BDD test framework and the Sinon.JS spying, stubbing and mocking library.

Testing Backbone applications with Jasmine and Sinon – Part 1 – Tinned Fruit - Aurora

In this part, we’ll take a brief look at Backbone, and then move on to an introduction to some of the features of Jasmine and Sinon.JS. Along the way we’ll look at why these tools are a such good fit for testing Backbone applications. If you have never written any JavaScript tests before, you might like to take a look at Christian Johansen’s recent series of articles over at scriptjunkie. Backbone everywhere In the last few months, Backbone.js has received a fair bit of exposure, with a number of tutorials and one or two high profile implementations.

No one really wants to do it. It’s expensive. It’s time consuming. But unfortunately, it’s needed to ensure that your consumers have a positive experience when they use your mobile applications. And it’s vital that you make sure that the experience is a great one for every consumer every time they use your application, starting with that very first time.

What is the impact of bring your own device (BYOD) policies on enterprise mobile app testing?

BYOD policies pose mobile app testing challenges - Aurora

This is a fairly timely question for me. Testing mobile applications is different than testing Web applications - Aurora. In order for imo to grow out of its infancy as a purely Web-based messaging application and spread its wings as a new mobile messaging application, the development team had to overcome a lot of challenges.

Testing mobile applications is different than testing Web applications - Aurora

In part one, Erdal Tuleu, director of engineering at imo, discussed the biggest challenges of moving from Web-based to mobile applications . In part two, Tuleau moves deeper into the differences between mobile and Web-based applications and gives advice on testing mobile applications. What makes developing and testing mobile apps really different from traditional Web applications? Erdal Tuleu: In the past it wasn't too common to have more than one station.

People usually logged into their laptop or desktop and closed it before going home and logging in again there. With that came the challenges of maintaining all those stations . We know which client users are sending messages from and also to some extent we can tell which client they are reading messages on. SoLoMo apps: How to test them - Aurora. When it comes to Social Local Mobile (SoLoMo) apps, standard testing measures aren't enough.

SoLoMo apps: How to test them - Aurora

So how do test managers assure the quality of these mobile applications that are location-aware, on the move and interacting with social networks? SoLoMo applications are forcing test managers to consider new kinds of failure, give greater consideration to nonfunctional testing and do more beta-testing with users. I hope you find SoLoMo apps interesting and challenging to work with -- because they are making the job of test manager a lot more interesting and challenging. In this tip, I cover five ways to deal with these new challenges in testing Social Local Mobile applications. Tip 1: Narrow the near-infinite set of devices. The first problem test managers face with SoLoMo apps is figuring out what devices to test, given that it's virtually impossible to test every possible device. Android operating system alone runs on more than 100 devices.
