Welcome to the first edition of the A Practical Guide to Testing Wireless Smartphone Applications. I

hope you find this material useful as a technical introduction to the thorny subject of how to automate

tests for mobile wireless applications that run on smartphones. Here you can learn about the

basics of various practical techniques, then follow the links and references to learn more about topics

of relevance to you. I encourage you to seek other examples and references, and to experiment with

test automation, in order to test your applications more effectively.

I wrote this guide as I could not find anything similar when I started in the field of mobile

wireless testing. After two years of adding material to my notes the content is still unfinished and

incomplete; and I realize I am unlikely to ever “catch up” to cover the encyclopedia of topics, as the

field of test automation for wireless smartphone applications continues to change and evolve. So,

here is what I have written so far. I hope it will enable others to learn about the subject much more

quickly.

I hope to publish updated versions as I learn more about the subject, and I welcome your

contributions. Some draft material is also available online at

http://sites.google.com/site/mobilewirelesstestautomation/

I currently work at Google. Some of the examples come from issues encountered at work, the

rest come from a wide range of sources.

Please be aware that this work continues to evolve based on my experiences: for instance I

would like to include information on test automation for the Android platform once I have the

relevant experience, which is driven — in part — by my project assignments.

Thank for your sharing. I need study about mobile apps testing. Do you know any other good books about it too? I need focus into iOS app testing first, then Android I think. Thanks!
