What are the common bugs that would often be found during the mobile testing process?

Software Testing

Testing is a very important step in software development process and whatever developers do to avoid bugs still testing will always result in any minor or major bugs. No code can never be free of bugs. Rectification is always required in development process.

As we are going to deal with software bugs, it is required to understand complete classification of all software bugs categories, In next slide we will go through all bugs generally occurred in software.

Application-Specific Bugs

● This kind of bug creates major vulnerability in the application.

● These are majorly found either in business logics or may be internally in the core code-base of application.

● These are the most typical bug to find during testing and it also takes lots of time to get resolved because once the code is change, definitely it is going to affect whole code-base of the application.

● Test cases are majorly not applicable on such kind of bugs.

CTA Crashes

●

Call-To-Action crashes are most commonly seen bug whenever user clicks or any action occurs in the form of events suddenly application gets crashed or get freezes without any self troubleshooting procedure.

● Main reason of occurrence because whenever any actions occurs no code would be available in case of any unrecognized results occur. No validations would be available to verify the action.

● May also occur due to hardware issues because multiple events can also occur at a same time .

Screen Orientation

● Screen orientation plays a very important parameter nowadays as trend of portable devices are keep on rising and if screen actions are not optimized efficiently then definitely application’s user experience will be not up-to mark and it can result in decline of users.

● Majorly these bugs either occur due to error in code-base or no proper handling of sensor events where to organize and monitor such events and providing appropriate results as per actions.

No Indications

●

Sometime you will find in applications like you are clicking on buttons but its not able to respond as you were expecting or you may find for some files if you click on download you will find no progress on timeline however after sometime file gets downloaded all such kinds of bugs are comes under no indications.

● These bugs majorly occur due to error in code it can be easily tracked and can be resolved with appropriate code delivery.

Error Handling

● These kind of bugs are not very common however it can be seen most usually

● Major reasons of occurrence of these bugs are due to developers fault.

● It is very important to track these kind of bugs because if not tracked properly then it can result in malfunctioning of the whole application

Input Validations

● It is most dangerously occurring bug and tester should always pay a very close attention to these kind of bugs because if not validated during time of testing then there will always be chance of application to be crashed at core level and data theft can also be a biggest risk which can occur in this.

● Most common way to resolve such errors are to always take measures and consider all inputs which can be provided during operations of the application and while development it is very important to consider input constraints and development should occur accordingly.

Notification Related

● These kind of bugs are not majorly problematic however definitely if this kind of bug will occur it will reduce User Experience and result in drop-down of popularity graph.

● These kind of bugs can be easily maintained and rectified by proper validations and testing each step of action and if required by improving code delivery performance can also be optimized .
