With a mix of users accessing your applications from a variety of mobile and PC devices, from a variety of interfaces, and across a variety of networks, how do you validate the performance of your applications?
Are you sure your customers can reach you? What’s the end-to-end user experience? How does the new mix of mobile users impact your existing Internet users? Questions like these can be hard to answer.
Mobile users have high expectations. Even though they are connecting via a diverse range of devices that typically have less bandwidth and computing power than most low-end PCs, mobile users still expect fast response times, secure connections, and consistently good service quality.
And if those expectations aren’t met, users are likely to vote with their feet and walk away from the use of the application.
This reality makes performance testing for mobile applications not just a nice thing to have, but an essential activity for success in the age of the instant-on enterprise—a time when people expect instantaneous access to your organization and the services you provide.
