Transcript of THE MOBILE CHANNEL · Mobile application testing is different from testing of other IT applications...
The mobile channel enables banks to provide fast, secure and reliable access to customers, and also allows them to leverage technology to transform distribution, reduce costs and increase sales. And with more than 60% of customers worldwide expected to use mobile banking in 2015, it’s a channel that banks need to embrace with urgency.
THE MOBILE CHANNEL -A GAME-CHANGER ACROSSTHE BANKING INDUSTRY
Besides its obvious advantages, the mobile channel also presents fresh challenges vis- a-vis a need to focus on constant innovation, multiple channel management and strong and secure infrastructure, all backed by a comprehensive testing and assurance plan.
End users are the �nal frontier in Quality Assurance (QA) due to their ability to provide instant feedback about mobile apps. It is estimated that more than 40% of the issues with mobile apps are discovered by end users. The consequences can be devastating. In case of an app failure, 48% users are less likely to use the app again and 34% of them are expected to switch to a competitor and never to return.

DEVISING AN EFFECTIVEMOBILE QA STRATEGYMobile application testing is different from testing of other IT applications in multiple ways. Mobile testing involves understanding of physical devices, end customer pro�le, network and location dependencies, managing a highly fragmented technology ecosystem and striking the right balance between a feature rich application and a simple to use application.
