Ubiquitous Application Testing on Cloud

Abstract

Nowadays desktop-based application are continuously evolving into pervasive or ubiquitous applications. There are millions of ubiquitous applications developed and used, but the testing of these applications are very complex tasks due to diversity in ubiquitous devices. Cloud computing is the future which has brought cost reduction, improved business, and processes in organizations through minimum management efforts. Software testing is a process to make sure the software is of acceptable quality. The traditional testing processes are incompatible with the changing technology and environment such as in ubiquitous applications. The availability of 5G network has reduced the data streaming dependence on the network. Thus under the presence of 5 G network cloud based testing can be successfully carried out for ubiquitous applications. Therefore, this research proposes a testing process for ubiquitous applications on cloud consisting of five steps. The testing on cloud would include stress testing, performance testing, compatibility testing, functional testing, web browser testing, load testing, and latency testing etc. The research mainly relate to ubiquitous application testing.
