JOT Automation and Profilence have introduced an automated test solution for operators enabling a full system test coverage of all types of Android devices. JOT G3 with Profilence Tau speeds up the time-to-market and cuts total costs by testing the entire device in a reliable and repeatable environment.

JOT G3 with Tau inspects in every detail the operating system and all physical interfaces with real-life use-cases. It is easily adaptable from one device type to another form-factor and one test range to the next one on line. The system is designed for test runs lasting over one hundred hours and heavy reuse of test cases on different devices, making it an ideal operator choice.

“Hundreds of millions Android phones are sold and close to one thousand device variants introduced every year. Operators need to run vast amounts of test cases in very narrow timespans. Our extensive solution is appealing as manual testing is so costly and time-consuming,” said Mika Mämmelä, Business Line Director at JOT Automation.

“The system goes beyond the simple pass/fail information. Our solution provides a deep analysis of every single test case, helping to find the root cause faster. It automatically stores all results, logs, video streams, crash dumps and profiling data to a cloud, securing easy data accessibility for every team member,” emphasizes Mikko Keskitalo, CEO at Profilence.

“Furthermore, the solution has an excellent capability to mimic real-world behaviour by allowing interruptions during testing. For example, it can respond to a text message simultaneously with full speed testing without issues.”

The companies are demonstrating the test solution at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona (March 2-5)
