Question

Best tool for mobile app testing ?

alexkaras · Accepted Answer

Hi,
&nbsp;
What is the best tool for woodworking, Makita or Hitachi?
What is the best car for driving, Ferrari or Lamborghini?
The answer significantly depends on your requirements, previous experience, personal preferences and usage specifics.
&nbsp;
Any experience with automated mobile testing? What type of mobile application? What are target platforms? Do you need to interact with UI only or need to access backend data? Is backend hosted in-premises or in the cloud? Etc...
&nbsp;
The best approach is to get trial of TestComplete and check if it fits your exact needs (https://smartbear.com/product/testcomplete/free-trial).

Hi,
&nbsp;
Neither me nor Marsha_R&nbsp;are employed and paid by SmartBear. And both we are the real customers and users of TestComplete.
TestComplete implements a huge functionality within its scope and&nbsp;there is a high chance that some functionality you will never use and even will not be aware about it in details. So why should we talk about problems that will be absolutely irrelevant for you? Likewise, any reason to describe how satisfied we are about something that is out of your test activities scope?
Without providing specific questions and requirements you will get the generic answer that TestComplete supports mobile testing for both Android and iOS and that there are Community members here that successfully use TestComplete for mobile testing for years already.
You may check functionality supported by TestComplete here (https://smartbear.com/product/testcomplete/features/), read about mobile testing with more details here (http://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/general-info/supported-technologies/index.html) and here (http://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/app-testing/mobile/index.html)&nbsp;and get pricing here (https://smartbear.com/product/testcomplete/pricing/).
But the devil is in the details, so either you are asking specific questions or do your own evaluation and decide how well product fits your needs.
&nbsp;
P.S.
&gt; so that i can go further.
This is a possible way to proceed. What do you need to make a decision to go further? What features or lack of those will stop you? Consider this, formulate your questions/requirements, ask them here and there is a high chance to get more useful replies.

And why would you expect anyone here to give you an answer other than SmartBear/TestComplete?&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;:smileylol:

jlees · Answer

I am expecting the answer from real&nbsp;customers not&nbsp;SmartBear/TestComplete people. I thought i will get both positive and negative points about&nbsp;smartbear and pcloudy, so that i can go further.
