US mobile testing company DeviceAnywhere has launched version 5.0 of its Test Centre technology.
The mobile application development platform enables publishers and developers to control and test their applications directly on a wide variety of handsets, carriers and operating systems, with racks of units sited around the world in local centres.
New additions in version 5.0 include features designed to further simplify mobile application testing and test automation, as well as provide more coding support for web apps, advanced search features and a new test case manager function.
"With this release we have introduced a more intelligent set of features, which offer more value to developers and makes testing easier and more efficient across the board," commented Faraz Syed, CEO and co-founder of DeviceAnywhere.
"With the fragmentation in the mobile market, having an intuitive and end-to-end system for application development and testing is more critical than ever."
Making mobile testing easier
Web applications are now the most frequently tested applications on DeviceAnywhere Test Center, which is why more functionality has been added to simplify testing and debugging. Now when developers use the mobile web on devices, they can see the actual web coding in a separate window, allowing them to debug any issues in real-time.
Another innovation is the ability for developers to search for devices by features and characteristics.
Now a developer who needs to test applications on a particular OS, firmware version, screen size, form factor or wants to test devices with wi-fi support, and/or an accelerometer, a camera or GPS, they can instantly see the devices that match the characteristic they're searching for.
Finally, there's a new test case manager view designed to assist the QA process, allowing customers to design a testing plan, with test cases and test steps as well as the ability to save the proof required for each step, in the form of a screenshot or video.
More details can be found at the DeviceAnywhere website.
