Testing must “dig deep” without requiring a lot of set-up time or expert input.
Before a mobile device finds itself to the hands of the cellular subscriber, quality-conscious operators and manufacturers must be sure that the product will deliver as expected. Finding issues after deployment has a drastic adverse effect on reputations, support costs and revenues. Due to the abundance of possible usage scenarios, testing must “dig deep” without requiring a lot of set-up time or expert input. The answer is automated testing from the industry leader in this field.
What to Test
- Is the device ready to deliver VoLTE and other IMS applications?
- Does the device conform to minimum standards?
- Does it seamlessly transition between networks and radio technologies?
- What happens in the presence of realistic noise, fading, variations in the MIMO channel and adversarial network conditions?
- Can the device deliver the location-based services experience subscribers expect?
- Call reliability (stress testing) goes beyond traditional testing requirements to ensure that deployed devices won’t need to be re-booted every few days.
