Applause Announces Test Automation Solution for Mobile, Wearable and Web Apps
Adding Turnkey Automation Offering Cements Applause as Single Source for All Modern App Quality Needs

(firmenpresse) - BOSTON, MA -- (Marketwired) -- 05/20/15 -- today announced a major new addition to its suite of app quality tools and services -- . With this new offering, Applause customers can now fulfill their entire app testing portfolio with the app quality company -- from manual to automated testing for web, mobile and wearable apps.
Before today's launch, companies seeking to automate their testing faced long-term, big-money contracts with a vendor of proprietary tools and/or device access. On top of that, companies still had to create automation scripts and maintain them as their apps change. Because of this, a majority of the costs often occurred after companies had licensed the software and devices.
With the new Applause turnkey solution, companies can now get the software tools, the device access and the expert services to build and maintain a best-in-class automation solution. Applause customers simply detail their desired test scenarios, and Applause takes it from there, providing what competitors can't, including:
- Applause provides the automation framework, scripts, software, devices (shared device cloud, private device cloud, or on-premise devices) and a team of automation experts to create, maintain and adapt a custom automation solution.
- Rather than having one set of tools for web apps, and another solution for mobile apps, and still another for wearables, Applause Test Automation supports a full range of browser-based and native applications.
- After Applause creates the scripts and abstraction layer, the customer owns them. There is no lock-in to closed or proprietary technology, and no onerous long-term contractual commitments.
- Companies can sign up, provide their test automation goals within days, and see positive ROI in weeks -- rather than the customary payback period of years (or all too often, never).
"Applause long ago established itself as the global leader in testing apps on real devices under real world conditions. Now -- with the help of hundreds of customers who have shared their perspectives and pain points -- we're reinventing the modern test automation landscape," said . "In today's increasingly agile apps economy, companies' testing efforts must be able to keep up with the pace of engineering and dev ops. Now, Applause customers can do that in many different ways. We're further establishing ourselves as the preferred partner for all our customers' app quality needs."
The framework for Applause Test Automation extends the capabilities of popular open source tools (Appium, TestNG and Selenium), enabling the Applause automation engineers to evolve scripts more quickly and keep up with the pace of change in a company's apps. Also, tests can be run on iOS, Android and web from the same framework.
Detailed features of include:
: Applause works with companies to create custom test scenarios that represent real-world user experiences. Applause test case writers create the manual test cases or modify existing scenarios to ensure they can be automated.
: Applause automation engineers develop automated scripts and custom object layer, resulting in an automation implementation that's quick to deploy and easy to maintain.
Even small application changes can require changes to automation scripts. With Applause, automation script failures are reviewed and corrected by members of the , and we notify immediately if any bugs are discovered.
: The Applause device clouds, created in collaboration with Testdroid, provide and maintain the infrastructure in the US and in the EU, so customers don't have any incremental investment.
A full team of Applause automation engineers and test case creators, responsible for all technical aspects of the project.
