Thanks to major outages, websites like Target, Southwest Airlines, Best Buy, and others have experienced firsthand the importance of mobile app performance testing.

Even if a mobile app functions perfectly, no one will use it if it takes twenty seconds to launch.

When performance is bad, it’s all that matters to customers. If performance testing is not part of your test plan, include it—whether it’s a requirement or not.

Learn:

  1. Performance testing strategies for the real world
  2. Approaches for finding bottlenecks and improving mobile app responsiveness
  3. How to build performance testing into the mobile application lifecycle
  4. How mobile performance influences user behavior

Join this web seminar to learn how to set performance targets for mobile applications and discover what types of testing will ensure you release high-quality applications that work—and work fast—every time.
