Benefits of UFT Mobile in Healthcare for testing mobile apps
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
UFT Mobile is our primary tool for testing our mobile application on real devices. Our business users, developers, testers, and automation framework interact with the real devices remotely testing builds for our mobile application. We have an array of iOS and Android devices connected and available for many testing scenarios. The product has allowed us to have real devices easily shared between team members who are in various geographic locations. With various concerns of privacy/data in healthcare, we are still able to manage and control access to the devices.
Pros
- Management of the various devices.
- Management of various versions and installation of our application.
- Allow real device interactions like Biometrics.
- Simple to use interface for any manual tester.
- Works in any browser.
- Easy management of signed/packaged apps in Android and iOS.
Cons
- Most of our problems are with the lengthy onboarding process with iOS devices.
- Occasionally Android devices will disconnect themselves.
Most Important Features
- Remote access
- Application management / installation
- Ability to have dedicated devices on premise / shared
- Easy user management
- Easy-to use interface
Return on Investment
- Shared devices that are accessible remotely is HUGE Benefit.
- (Our own fault) - we are limited to the number of physical devices we own, so at times we have people waiting for access.
