Frequently Asked Questions
What is mobile app testing?
Mobile app testing tests a mobile application for functionality, usability, performance, security, and compatibility across different devices, operating systems, and networks. It ensures the app performs as expected under real-world conditions and meets user expectations.
What types of mobile apps can you test?
We test all types of mobile apps, including native apps, cross-platform apps, mobile web apps, mobile games, OTT apps, Salesforce mobile apps, wearable apps, and AR/VR applications.
What platforms and devices do you test on?
We test across all major platforms, including iOS, Android, and mobile web, using a comprehensive range of real devices and simulators/emulators. Our device matrix includes the latest models with various screen sizes, operating system versions, and configurations.
How do you ensure the app is compatible across different devices?
We perform cross-platform and cross-device testing, using real devices and emulators to ensure your app functions seamlessly on different screen sizes, OS versions, and hardware configurations.
How do you handle security testing for mobile apps?
We conduct thorough security testing using penetration testing, vulnerability scanning, and code reviews. Our security experts ensure your app is free from potential vulnerabilities and complies with industry standards like GDPR and HIPAA.
What is real-device testing, and why is it important?
Real-device testing involves running your app on actual mobile devices under real-world conditions to ensure it performs correctly for your end users. This method offers authentic feedback on your app's performance, usability, and responsiveness across various devices, networks, and locations.
What is the difference between manual and AI-augmented testing for mobile apps?
Manual testing is performed by QA engineers who manually execute test cases, focusing on complex user interactions and exploratory testing. Automated testing, on the other hand, uses automated tools to run tests quickly and repeatedly, ideal for regression and performance testing across multiple devices and platforms.
How do you integrate mobile testing with CI/CD pipelines?
We integrate automated mobile testing into your CI/CD pipeline, ensuring continuous testing with every code commit. This setup helps catch and resolve issues early in development, improving overall quality and speeding up release cycles.
What tools do you use for mobile app testing?
We are tool-agnostic and use various industry-leading tools, including Appium, Espresso, XCUITest, Selenium, and more, based on your specific project needs.
How do you test mobile apps for performance?
We simulate real-world usage patterns and stress test your app under heavy loads to evaluate its response times, throughput, and stability. This helps identify performance bottlenecks and ensures your app can handle peak traffic without degradation.
Do you offer mobile app testing for specific industries?
Yes, we offer mobile app testing services across various industries, including healthcare, eCommerce, finance, media and entertainment, retail, and more. Our QA engineers have experience in different domains, ensuring your app meets industry-specific standards and requirements.
How do you ensure my mobile app complies with accessibility standards?
We conduct accessibility testing to ensure your app meets standards such as WCAG and ADA. We verify that users with disabilities can easily navigate and interact with your app.
What can I expect from a mobile app testing partnership with QASource?
When you partner with QASource, you can expect tailored testing strategies, expert QA engineers, access to real devices, seamless CI/CD integration, thorough security assessments, and performance optimization—all designed to ensure your app is reliable, secure, and ready for market success.
Why should I hire a mobile app testing company?
Hiring a mobile app testing company ensures that your app is thoroughly tested by experts, reducing the risk of bugs, performance issues, or security vulnerabilities. This leads to a more stable app, a better user experience, and faster releases, ultimately protecting your brand reputation and increasing user retention.
How do I choose the right mobile app testing company?
To choose the right mobile app testing company, consider their experience, expertise in your industry, tools, testing approach (manual vs. automated), and client reviews. A company that understands your project’s specific requirements and can provide tailored testing strategies will best fit your needs.
