Test Local And Internal Servers Before Deployment Using Wildnet. Some testing teams set up their own staging environment to test internal servers but as there is no public access which makes it difficult to perform local testing on remote devices.

Test Local And Internal Servers Before Deployment Using Wildnet

So how would you test your app which can be accessed through your internal network? We launched a feature called Wildnet, that enables you to test private or internal servers using pCloudy. You can test your privately hosted apps on any Android or iOS devices and implement continuous testing to ensure reduced release cycle. Some times testers want to test their internal servers to protecting unsecured data and credentials, hide new features, and general security. But if an app hasn’t been made public, it should not delay testing across environments. Prerequisite: User should be registered on pCloudy platform Executables can be downloaded from below links Linux : Windows : OSX : Manual Process to enable Wildnet 1.

Functional Testing Vs Non-Functional Testing. According to a report, app crashes cause 71% of uninstalls.

Functional Testing Vs Non-Functional Testing

Other reasons that compel users to uninstall apps are page response time, confusing UI, and battery consumption. This indicates the importance of functional testing as well as non-functional testing in delivering a user-friendly app. So let’s examine functional testing. Functional testing is done to make sure that the functions of an app are working in conformance with the required specification. It is black box testing and does not go into the details of the source code of the app. Functional Testing Types Let’s have a look at types of functional testing for mobile applications.
