Testing Mobile Applications on Device

Although most of the big players (BlackBerry, Apple and Android) provide software simulators for development, it’s crucial that every application be tested on devices before being released into the wild, it’s amazing sometimes how an application can respond differently when it’s on a device, specifically when it comes to the processing power, or screen size, we’re always on the lookout for phones that we can bring in to use for testing, currently our test suite contains:

  • BlackBerry Curve 3g (OS 6)
  • BlackBerry 8520 (OS 5)
  • BlackBerry 9900 (OS 7)
  • iPhone 4
  • iPad 2
  • iPad 1
  • iPod Touch 2nd Gen
  • HTC Incredible S

We’re looking forward to introducing iPhone 5 in October if the rumours are to be believed :)
