Tricentis, the Austin-headquartered software testing company, has announced the addition of a Virtual Mobile Grid service to its offerings, aiming to simplify the process of testing mobile applications on a large scale. This service has been developed based on the platform acquired during its recent acquisition of Waldo [further details here] and will be integrated into the Tricentis Mobile application testing framework.
Commenting on the announcement, Tricentis Chief Technology Officer of DevOps, Mav Turner [pictured] said: “The Virtual Mobile Grid provides iOS simulators and Android emulators in the cloud, allowing for the running of tests in parallel, and scalable, on-demand access to virtual devices. It can be used to increase application quality through testing across a wide range of device emulators and simulators, providing easy access to any needed Android or iOS device virtually, and greater test coverage for each code check-in earlier in development.”
Key features announced in the release include:
-
“Integration as part of an end-to-end mobile testing solution containing low-code/no-code automation and the ability to author and execute tests either locally or in the cloud using real or virtual devices.”
-
“Tight integration with test automation solutions, making it faster to get started out of the box.”
-
“A flexible combination of virtual and physical devices for integration and release testing.”
