1.
What is the difference between Mobile
Testing and Application Testing?
Mobile Testing: Testing the Mobile handsets/devices, It
is testing the core functionalities of the devices like Sim Call Connectivity,
Video Calling, network, battery etc (testing the OS)
Application Testing: Testing the applications in the
devices (ex: Facebook, Twitter)
2.
What is the difference between Native and
the Hybrid apps in the mobile?
Native: Built using the native programming language for
the platform.
Hybrid: Built using web technology and then used for
the specific platform. A Hynbrid app is developed using the combination with
HTML5 and native technology
3.
What kind of testing is performed on your
current mobile app testing?
Installation testing, un-Installation testing,
Functional testing, Interrupt testing, performance testing, acceptance testing,
compatibility testing.
4.
What is your approach while testing mobile
application?
Based on the domain you can explain the strategy of the
testing.
5.
What are the things specific to mobile
application would be concentrated while writing test plan for mobile application?
A part from the regular test plan we will consider OS,
os version, Screen size, Device type.
6.
How do you test different screen
size/device?
Using Emulator
7.
What is the difference between Emulator and
Simulator?
Emulator: Emulates the device based on hardware.
Simulator: Emulates the device based on software.
8.
What is Regression Testing?
Regression testing is the process of testing changes to
computer programs to make sure that the older programming still works with the
new changes.
The intent of regression testing is to ensure that
changes such done have not introduced new faults. One of the main reasons for
regression testing is to determine whether a change in one part of the software
affects other parts of the software.
9.
Types of Regression testing?
There are two
types of regression testing
Final Regression testing: A "final regression testing" is done to validate the gold master builds,
Regression testing: A "Regression testing" is done to validate
the product and failed test cases between system test cycles.
10. What
is Sanity testing?
When there are some minor issues with software
and a new build is obtained after fixing the issues then instead of doing
complete regression testing sanity is performed on that build. You can say that
sanity testing is a subset of regression testing. Sanity testing is done after
thorough regression testing is over, it is done to make sure that any defect
fixes or changes after regression testing does not break the core functionality
of the product. It is done towards the end of the product release phase.
11. What
are the common challenges in mobile testing?
Lack of Physical devices
Varity of mobile devices
Different OS
Different network operators
Different screen Size.
12. What
is a webservice?
