Key Takeaways
⇨ The growing trend of remote work necessitates the development of enterprise mobile apps to deliver actionable insights directly to users' devices.
⇨ Robust testing procedures, such as Worksoft's automated mobile testing, are essential for ensuring the quality and functionality of mobile apps like SAP Mobile Start.
⇨ Automated mobile testing allows IT teams to focus on innovation by reducing the time and costs associated with manual testing, while also improving overall software quality and early bug detection.
With job roles becoming increasingly more flexible, and remote working now the norm for many organizations, the development of mobile apps for enterprise endeavors seems like a no-brainer. Rather than having operations rooted to on-premise networks and hardware, actionable insights can be delivered straight to a user’s phone.
The necessity of mobile apps
However, the development of versatile tools like SAP Mobile Start and other phone-related app creations can only be achieved with robust and specific testing procedures. Firms like software-automation specialist Worksoft work towards ensuring quality and functionality when it comes to testing mobile apps. Worksoft’s recent collaboration with Perforce, a leading mobile testing platform, further reinforces its testing capabilities by delivering a platform specifically made for continuous testing, including mobile testing.
To remain competitive and clued-in to intelligent insights, an enterprise mobile app is a necessity. SAP Mobile Start, for example, is accessible on iOS and Android and allows users to access company workflows and processes, uninterrupted remote working and provide push notifications for any matters that require urgent attention.
A robust, automated mobile test system
With enterprise phone apps like SAP Mobile Start being important for every day operations, it’s integral they are robust and provide clear benefits. Guaranteeing this kind of quality can involve processes like Worksoft’s Mobile Testing, which automates mobile app testing across different platforms, IoT devices and operating systems. This process simulates real-world user scenarios, too, creating a comprehensive automated testing package that doesn’t require any manual configuration.
Testing without automation can take up one of the most valuable resources: time. By allowing your IT development team to focus more on innovation rather than tedious testing procedures, a product could reach the market faster, less costs are spent on testing because it doesn’t take nearly as long as it would have if done manually, and the overall quality of the software is usually better from the more rigorous and rapid testing.
The use of automated mobile testing can also empower IT teams to detect any bugs early in the development cycle. By cracking down on defects in development, potentially expensive software reworks and network downtime can be reduced.
Automation technology can help enhance any enterprise project, especially if developing and testing for a mobile SAP environment. Worksoft can provide the necessary, robust and comprehensive mobile testing needed to create responsive and beneficial phone apps.
