Those, who perform
mobile testing, desktop testing or
web site testing, or have some knowledge about modern information technologies know that mobile software products significantly differ from desktop applications.
Programs for personal computers appeared much earlier than programs for mobile devices. Modern mobile devices, like tablets and smartphones, are smaller than personal computers and their performance capacity is lesser than performance capacity of a computer.
Following this line of reasoning many
people believe that mobile software products are almost the same as desktop ones, but simpler. In reality mobile programs are often more complex and more sophisticated than programs for personal computers. They support functions and processes that are irrelevant to desktop software products.
A
software testing company notices that, unfortunately, sometimes not only ordinary
people, but software developers and testers forget or ignore this fact. As a result, much costs, time and efforts are spent on mobile programs of poor quality. Such software does not satisfy users and does not yield a return.
Nowadays Among the Reasons of Existing Low Grade Mobile Software Are:
- shortage of skilled experienced mobile software developers and testers;
- utilization of methods and approaches that have been elaborated for desktop software;
- rapid evolving of mobile technology;
- very limited time for mobile application testing and constructing.
One should remember about specific nature of mobile software developing and
mobile testing.
