Anyone know of a good app testing program?

[Rena Wesley]

Hey so I was just wondering if anyone here knew of a good app testing program I could look in to. (I'd just Google it but rather get personal experience from real people than what Google recommends)

A chair.

If it collapses, your app is too big.

Is that like some acronym for some sort of cyber app testing group or something? Or are you just being painfully unhelpful? t:

hopefully anita18 chimes in here. i feel like she would have the best insight since her hubby creates apps

What platform are you using?

What do you mean by "app testing?" The devs I know write their own tests to check redundancy and scale, since each app has its own code base to deal with.

If you're working in iOS, you can install Testflight and get beta testers to test your apps for you (one at a time...), but it's not a plug-and-play service, you gotta set that up.

If you're talking about coding using let's say with Android Studio unit tests should be written. I have never developed for Android, but they have documentation for it here.

If someone is going to test a program they uses these tests which are written in code to emulate the program.

Basically, let's say the app needed to pull information from a RSS feed let's say code would be written to do that work. The unit test will run and determine whether that action will fail or not. Basically, you build tests for each bit of work.

Xamarin looks pretty good for this IMO. If you are developing on yourself, there is plenty of info on web or maybe you can find a similar open source app you can borrow from.
