Purpose of Project /Business Challenge

Purpose of the project is to perform the end to end testing of the application on both platform Android and iOS.The biggest challenge is to test the complete app in a limited time which included testing after all fixes for both platforms. The urban point has the integration with the Uber in the app which auto-detect your location to the store location. Urban Point also comes up with a language switch option which deals in two languages English and Arabic as well as country switch option. It creates a challenge to test the application to test the app using both the switches because offers/store may change according to the country switch. Last but not the least testing all the application on real devices simultaneously becomes more challenging to deliver a quality product in a given
deadline.

Solution

We discussed and implemented strategies to deliver a quality product in a given time. We selected a few devices with different screen sizes and OS so that we can observe the UI and functional issues based on latest and old OS on different size of the screen. Also implemented solutions to check the uber integration. We prioritize and execute the test cases so that the risk of the application gets overcome and we can deliver a quality product in a given time.
