Smartphones & tablets are the reality and a large mass of people are moving to use it for business applications, entertainment, social networking, healthcare applications etc. It’s mandatory for businesses to assess performance of mobile apps before releasing it to public. Responsiveness of mobile apps is one of the big factor for organization to capture the market.
Below are list of things to consider specific to mobile performance testing.
Have you considered-
- Application performance against different mobile phones in the market?
- CPU utilization
- Memory utilization
- I/O
- Cache size availability
- Rendering (2D / 3D)
- Application performance against different mobile phones & browsers in the market?
- JS Engine processing
- Number of threads executing the requests
- Memory leakage by the application?
- Battery consumption by the application?
- Internet data usage by the application?
- Offline data usage by the application?
