Mobile Labs and Northway Solutions Group partner to provide turnkey mobile app testing solution

USA: Mobile Labs, LLC, a leader in automated, cross-platform mobile application testing, announced its partnership with Northway Solutions Group, an industry-leading technology solutions provider. Northway provides consulting services around HP's IT Performance Suite of products.

As an HP Elite Specialist software partner, Northway specializes in the implementation, education and support of HP's Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) platform, including Quality Center, Unified Functional Testing, Performance Center, LoadRunner and Service Virtualization.

This partnership calls for Northway to be a value-added reseller of Mobile Labs’ suite of automated mobile application testing technology, including deviceConnect and Mobile Labs Trust.

As a Mobile Labs VAR, Northway can now provide customers with comprehensive management capabilities for mobile devices, users and apps in corporate test labs via deviceConnect, a private, internal device cloud. deviceConnect securely supports organizations no matter what their test strategy is – whether testing is highly automated, 100 percent manual or somewhere in between.

Mobile Labs’ test automation solution, Trust, is an add-in for the industry’s leading automated testing platform. Trust uses deviceConnect to perform cross-platform automated testing on real, pristine smartphones and tablets. Trust is a second-generation mobile app testing tool that uses object-level detection and interaction rather than visual-based (optical character recognition or image-within-image) techniques. The result is more effective and efficient mobile application testing.

Together these solutions address two major challenges in the mobile application testing landscape: deviceConnect securely manages and provides access to mobile devices while Trust gives Quality Assurance and testing professionals the right tool to address the complexities of testing mobile apps.
