In a mobile testing flow, there are lots of factors having influence on quality of products. So let’s find it down.

1. Mobile testing flow-App installing

・ Can the app be installed on your device?

・ What happens when the app is installed (the device runs out of battery, loses network, ..)

2. Mobile testing flow-Device memory

・ App takes up a lot of device memory?

・ What happens if you install the app when full memory?

8. Mobile devices typically use a 2G, 3G, 4G or WIFI network connection, while desktop computers often use broadband or dial-up connections.
9. Automated testing tools may not work on mobile applications

Devices limit

1. CPU processor limit of devices
2. Limited RAM
3. Depends on the source
4. Limited battery life
5. And importantly, now in companies the equipment for testing is very scarce.
