Scope

Virgosol, a company offering solutions and services to enhance the quality of all digital products, raises quality standards in the ever-growing mobile application market with its "Mobile App Check-Up" service.

This testing process includes basic checks of mobile applications from the perspectives of functionality, performance, and usability in today's competitive digital environment. In a world where more than half of downloaded mobile applications are deleted within 30 days, who wouldn't want to identify and report what users are experiencing?

Benefits of Mobile App Check-Up:

• Learn what your customers are experiencing through fast and effective software bug checks.
• See the quality of your app with tests conducted at different layers in a short time.
• Plan your product and technology roadmap with a detailed report of test results.
• Discover potential risks that could lead to negative outcomes before your customers do.
• As with all control mechanisms, having your application reviewed by a team that is detached from the product but skilled in the testing approach will provide the most effective results.

Scope of Mobile App Check-Up:

Functional Tests

These tests check whether the functions and features of the application work as expected. They simulate scenarios that users may encounter when interacting with the application and verify whether the application meets its functional requirements.

The importance of functional tests lies in ensuring that the mobile application offers users a seamless experience. Ensuring the core functions of an application work without issues increases user satisfaction and loyalty. It preserves brand reliability. Additionally, these tests help detect potential errors early, saving time and costs during the software development process.

Performance and Load Tests

These tests assess how efficiently and quickly the application works under different conditions. They examine the speed, response time, resource usage (memory, CPU, battery), performance under load, and network connection of the application.

The importance of performance tests stems from the direct link between user experience and application performance. A slow or resource-heavy app can cause user loss. These tests detect potential performance issues early, ensuring the application runs optimally and enhancing user satisfaction. If the application slows down, crashes, or loses functionality during periods of high traffic or intensive processing, it can lead to user loss and damage to the brand’s reputation. Load tests identify possible bottlenecks and system limitations, ensuring the application is prepared for such high-usage periods.

UX - Usability Tests

These tests assess whether the application is user-friendly and whether users can easily achieve their goals within the app. They evaluate the user interface design, the navigation structure between pages, and the overall ease of use. These tests reveal how users experience the application, the challenges they face, and how intuitive the app is.

The importance of these tests lies in providing a good user experience, which is critical for users to prefer and continue using an application. A complicated or confusing interface can lead users to abandon the application. UX and usability tests improve the app’s usability, increasing user satisfaction, fostering user loyalty, and positively influencing the overall success of the application.

Compatibility Tests

Mobile app compatibility tests check whether the application works smoothly across mobile platforms with different devices, operating systems, screen sizes, and hardware features. These tests ensure consistent performance across various operating systems like Android and iOS, as well as different versions and device models. The Mobile Device Park allows rapid diversification during these tests.

The importance of compatibility tests arises from the fact that mobile users utilize a wide range of devices. Ensuring the app works properly on all devices expands the user base and prevents users from abandoning the app due to technical issues. These tests enable the app to reach more users, minimize technical problems, and maintain brand reputation.

Language and Localization Tests

Mobile app language and localization tests verify that local formats, such as date, time, and currency, are appropriately considered for different languages. They also test whether the user interface is properly adapted to different languages.

The importance of localization tests is directly related to the app's success in global markets. Offering a correct and culturally appropriate experience to users in different regions increases user satisfaction and boosts adoption rates. Localization tests ensure that language and cultural differences do not negatively impact the app's functionality or user experience, making the app more appealing to users in different regions.

Tests Specific to Mobile Applications

These tests include installation, update, freezing, crashing, internet disconnection, and battery drainage tests. Depending on the functional features of the application, push notifications, streaming, and payment tests are also critical for app usability. In addition, tests based on Google Analytics to identify the most visited pages, error tests based on application logs, tests based on app store reviews and social media comments, and checks of the app's storage and resource consumption are also crucial for success.
