The Challenges – Velocity vs. Quality

• Pain:

• Market pressure compressing

delivery schedules

• Growing App complexity driving

test case growth

• Rapidly evolving test matrix

• Goal:

• Deliver feedback to developers

faster

• Complete test coverage within

each sprint cycle

• Strategy

• Increase automation

• Adopt continuous integration

And

Or

The Need for Speed is Driving

DevTest Adoption Now

13

• Collaboration between Dev and Test is increasing

• Continuous integration is accelerating the move towards DevTest

• Performance testing is starting earlier and occurring more frequently

• DevOps adoption is less mature compared to the evolution of DevTest

• Automation is a fundamental enabler

Perf Test

Emulators vs. Real Devices

Real devices = Accurate development feedback (Reliability)

Real hardware and relevant OS versions

Same target as your end-users will use

Real network conditions

Risk tolerance – Real devices reduces quality risks

Cannot determine quality level based on emulators

There are use cases when Emulators can be useful:

Early feedback while binary or devices are not available

Enhanced debugging locally within the IDE (Xcode/Eclipse)

UI/L&F on various Emulator skins prior to real device testing

Alpha phase basic functionality testing

Real Devices vs. Emulators - Example

iOS8 Implications on DevTest

• Interactive Notifications Functionality

• App Extensions

• TouchID Enhanced Technology

• Swift Language Introduced

• Continuity and contextual Awareness (Handoff)

RWD & AWD Definitions

Enhanced UX through 2 methods

20

Adaptive web design uses

predefined layouts that have

been carefully constructed for a

variety of screen sizes

Responsive web design is

client-side which means the

page is sent to the device

browser (the client), and the

browser then modifies the

appearance of the page in

relation to the size of the

browser window.
