Differences between the kinds of testing

[PHiggins]

Afternoon.

Help, I'm a tad confused.

Please tell me the real difference between device testing, web application testing on a device, and app testing.

Thanks

Hey PHiggins.

Fair question. Glad you asked.

If you have the device, you're typically trying to find device problems. You're testing the device.

If you have an app on the device, you're trying to find problems with the app. You're testing the app on the device.

Neither of which is what eValid is all about.

If you have a web app that runs on a device, then you're trying to test the web app, as it runs on that device.

So, what you are really concerned about is the interaction between your web app and its server, ON THAT DEVICE.

To do that you need the client-side perspective of what is going on when a user interacts with your web app.

That's what eValid is optimized to do.

We think of it as the "sweet spot" for web application quality...

To illustrate that, take a look at this test run we made having eValid imitate an iPhone driving a web application:
