Why mobile application testing ?5:00
Mobile Application usage is exploding across the world today. There are several hundred thousand mobile applications available to consumers today across platforms such as Android, Windows and Apple iPhone. Many consumers of web applications now expect at least a basic continuance of the same web services on their mobile devices. This brings up not only the need to create Apps but to Test them, and to ensure that they run on an increasing array of platforms and devices. Mobile Application Testing is the process by which application software developed for hand held devices are tested for its functionality, usability and consistency.

As part of this course we are learning MOBILE APPLICATION TESTING FROM SCRATCH . This course deal with how to write the test cases and how to test the mobile apps in Android and iOS platforms. Also included how to report the defects/screenshots/log files with the development team during the test case execution.
What is mobile application testing7:28
Learn what mobile application testing is and why it focuses on verifying functionality, usability, and security across multiple devices, networks, and operating systems to ensure a robust, compatible app.
Types of mobile applications13:06
Examine the three mobile app types—mobile web (browser-based), native apps, and hybrid cross-platform apps—covering deployment, platform limitations, device access, and testing implications.
Challenges in mobile application testing7:26
Explore the major challenges in mobile app testing, including diverse devices, screen sizes, platforms and OS versions, device models, networks, carriers, and the use of emulators and real-time testing strategies.
Session 5 - Mobile application testing strategy6:18
Explore how to craft a mobile application testing strategy, outlining functional, UI, performance, and security testing, device selection, emulators, and collaboration with product managers.
Emulator and Simulator7:29
Learn the difference between emulators and simulators, and how hardware- and software-based virtual devices support mobile app testing with SDK tools. Understand OS architecture and key testing tasks like screenshots.

Prerequisites for Android real device testing17:37
Learn how to prepare Android real device testing by setting up drivers, enabling usb debugging, and configuring developer options to transfer files between pc and device.
Install the Android application in the real device6:45
Install the Android application on a real device by transferring files with a file explorer, ensuring proper privileges, and completing the setup.
Capture Logfiles and Screenshots in Android real device - Part I20:28
Capture Logfiles and Screenshots in Android real device - Part II1:06
Master capturing logfiles and screenshots on an Android real device to support mobile app testing, with setup steps including driver install and manual setup based on device model.

Checklist for mobile app test cases - Part I19:10
Develop a checklist for mobile app test cases, covering installation, uninstallation, launch, and out-of-the-box scenarios. Analyze interruptions, network reliability, battery impact, splash screen, logo checks, and data loading behavior.
Check list for mobile application test cases - Part II10:19
Check list for mobile application test cases - Part III16:29
Master mobile application testing from scratch by examining installation, download workflows, and test cases. Assess cross-network performance across 3G, 4G, and wifi, and verify battery, memory, and installation reliability.
Mobile application test cases Part I18:57
Develop and run mobile app test cases from a requirements document. Explore installation, memory, and network scenario checks, plus layout and navigation verifications across devices.
Mobile application test cases Part II12:59
Apply mobile app test cases from scratch by evaluating real devices and emulators, testing across orientations and sizes, and understanding emulator limitations and open-source options.
Mobile application test cases Part III16:29

Web Services Part I14:09
Web Services part II18:25
Learn how web services serve as the interface between programs, enabling program-to-program communication through requests and responses, and develop techniques to test, validate, and secure these services.
Web Services Part III13:33
Explore how web services power mobile applications, compare tools across platforms, and plan future-ready app development using services that work for any platform.

Android version history14:37
Create the Android emulator set up16:52
Create and configure the Android emulator setup from scratch by ensuring the JDK is installed, managing packages with the device manager, and creating virtual devices for testing Android apps.
Install and uninstall the application in Android emulator11:11
Install and uninstall an application in an Android emulator using adb from the command prompt. Locate the SDK platform-tools, run the install command, verify success, and uninstall via emulator settings.

iOS simulator set up11:17
Learn to set up the iOS simulator, test your app across device models like iPhone 4, 5, and 6, and install apps into the simulator using ap files.
install the app in iOS real device9:40
Learn how to install and transfer apps to a real iOS device using iTunes and a PC, including syncing and device identification.
Take the log files and screenshots in the iOS real device17:46
Learn to capture screenshots and collect log files on iOS real devices, locate crash logs and diagnostic data on Mac or Windows, and share issues with your team.
