1. Getting User Experience and Performance Just Right
-
Why it matters: If an app reacts slowly or has complex menus, users will leave and try a competitor’s app.
-
The challenge: Testers must check every feature carefully. Even if a bug gets fixed, a bad review can stop new users from trying the app.
- The goal: Deliver an app with no bugs the first time around.
2. Screen Sizes Vary Widely
-
Phones come in many screen sizes—small, medium, and large.
-
Example: Samsung Note 10 (6.3″) and Note 10+ (6.8″). Apple also releases different sizes.
- The challenge: Ensuring the app looks and works well on all sizes.
3. Different Displays
-
Not just size—displays have different resolutions and pixel quality.
-
Example: Note 10 has an FHD+ 1080p display, Note 10+ has a QHD+ 1440p display.
- The challenge: Make sure the app looks sharp and clear on all displays.
4. Touch Screen Testing
-
Touch events (like tapping and swiping) have to be accurate.
-
The challenge: Testers must check that each gesture works as expected across all devices.
5. Launch Time Pressure
-
Mobile apps often have tight deadlines.
-
The challenge: Testing must be thorough but still fast enough to meet release dates.
6. Security Testing
-
Apps on public clouds face more security risks than private setups.
-
The challenge: Thoroughly test for data leaks, secure storage, and safe user permissions.
7. Limited Device Access
-
It’s hard to own all the types of phones needed for testing.
-
The challenge: Real-device testing becomes tough without a large device library.
8. Multiple Operating Systems
-
Apps must work on Android, iOS, Windows Mobile, and even older systems like Symbian or Bada.
-
There are also many versions of each OS.
- The challenge: Make sure the app works well on old and new versions.
9. Device Memory Limits
-
Some phones have low memory (RAM and storage).
-
The challenge: Ensure the app uses memory efficiently and does not crash on low-end devices.
10. Network and Response Time
-
Users switch between Wi-Fi, 3G, 4G, 5G, and other networks.
-
The challenge: Test the app under different network conditions—slow, fast, switching between networks.
11. Regression Testing
-
Every time a new feature is added, tests must be re-run.
-
This multiplies the effort: devices × OS versions × screens × networks.
- The challenge: Keep regression testing fast, broad, and reliable.
