Same test case scripts can be executed on different mobiles irrespective of operating systems and language it supports. This covers a wide range of devices (Android, iOS, Blackberry etc) on which automated testing can be performed in very less time. The test scripts are written written using keyword-based Script Once Technology. The creation of scripts are easy. It saves time and effort. Repetitive testing on each iteration would be now be less tedious. This would also allow QA to focus on quality. It would expand test case coverage in the application and finally release reliable/robust application. In all, improving the app quality.

I would like to see stability in connection for connected devices in case of network failure, reboots and restarts
I would like to see shorter support cycle for patch and updates from OS makers
I would like to see a dedicated HPMC support center, where users can call-in and get answers as this a brand new product.
