Mobile application testing requires special tools and test methods. The variety of mobile technologies, platforms and devices causes additional difficulties in developing and testing mobile applications.

Mobile applications testing differs significantly from the standard approach of testing applications designed for use on personal computers because of the large number  of  the mobile device features and the variety of mobile platforms.

There are many features that must be considered during testing of applications for mobile devices.The key moments, in our opinion, are:

• Operations with memory, control of memory leaks;
• The intensity of power consumption, sensitivity to the charge;
• The use of disk space, stability in the limited space on the drive, logging, work with memory cards;
• Support for various screen resolutions, portrait and landscape modes;
