It's a new month and I keen to do the Mobile Testing Pathway by Katrina Clokie

Reading the reference list

2010 - Test mobile applications with I SLICED UP FUN! - Jonathan Kohl

link to original pdf
Use the following Mnemonic to generate test ideas for mobile app testing
  • I - Inputs (keyboard/touch/peripherals)
  • S - Store (good source for product claims & marketing material. Also customer feedback)
  • L - Location (where you are matters, G3, G4, WiFi, moving between, turn location service off)
  • I - Interactions/Interruptions (from other applications running on the resource limited mobile)
  • C - Communication (can you still make/receive calls/txt's/emails)
  • E - Ergonomics (consider overuse issues of suboptimal ergonomics)
  • D - Data (follow the data, scope the breath of data)
  • U - Usability (follow the emotions, do people like using the app)
  • P - Platform (consider the hardware eg hi/lo specs, and the OS and ecosystem)
  • F - Function (does it do what it should)
  • U - User Scenarios (go on a real user's journey through the app)
  • N - Network (mobile connectivity is a multitude of unreliability)

2012 - Testing mobile applications with COP (who) FLUNG GUN - Dhanasekar Subramaniam

2012 - Applying SFDPOT to mobile testing - Karen N Johnson

link to Karen's blog link to James Bach's original blog
Use the following Mnemonic to generate test ideas for testing almost anything
  • S - Structure (eg system architecture)
  • F - Function (what does it do)
  • D - Data (inputs, outputs, what it processes)
  • P - Platform (What does it depend on)
  • O - Operations (How will it be used)
  • T - Time (how does time affect it)
