QA Mobile Testing

Design and execute reliable, cost-aware mobile testing across iOS and Android (native + cross-platform).

Quick Start

• Fill assets/mobile-test-plan.md to define risk, layers, and gates.
• Fill assets/device-matrix.md from analytics to pick Tier 1/2/3 coverage.
• Use references/framework-comparison.md to choose automation frameworks.
• Use references/flake-management.md to set a flake budget, reruns, and quarantine rules.

Scope

• Define mobile test strategy across iOS and Android.
• Plan device matrix, OS coverage, and risk tiers.
• Choose automation frameworks and CI + device lab setup.
• Address performance, network/offline, backgrounding, and permissions.
• Define pre-release gates, staged rollout, and store readiness checks.

When NOT to Use

• Platform-specific iOS test command details -> qa-testing-ios
• Platform-specific Android test command details -> qa-testing-android

Inputs

• Platforms, supported OS versions, and device targets.
• App type (native, cross-platform, hybrid/webview).
• Critical user flows and risk areas.
• Distribution channels and release cadence.
• Existing test tooling, CI, and device lab access (Firebase Test Lab, BrowserStack, AWS Device Farm).
• Observability and rollout controls (Crashlytics/Sentry, performance/RUM, feature flags, staged rollout).
• Test data strategy (seed/reset, test accounts, environment parity).

Workflow

1. Define quality risks and SLIs (crash-free, ANR, startup time, key flow success).
2. Build a device matrix from analytics; keep PR gates emulator/simulator-first.
3. Choose frameworks (default: XCUITest + Espresso/Compose; add cross-platform only when it reduces total cost).
4. Build test layers: unit, integration/contract, UI smoke, targeted E2E on real devices.
5. Add mobile-specific coverage: permissions, background/foreground, deep links, offline/poor network.
6. Add performance checks (startup, scrolling/jank, memory) and accessibility checks.
7. Set flake budget, rerun limits, quarantine policy, and failure triage (artifacts + reproducibility).
8. Define release gates + store readiness; ship via staged rollout with monitoring + rollback.

Outputs

• Mobile test strategy and device matrix.
• Automation plan and framework selection.
• Test case inventory with priorities.
• Release readiness checklist.
• CI pipeline and reporting plan.

Quality Checks

• Keep UI tests focused on critical flows; keep suites small and fast.
• Separate device specific bugs from logic regressions.
• Track flake rate per test/device; quarantine and fix top offenders.
• Verify permissions, notifications, and background behavior.
• Prefer stable selectors (accessibility IDs/test tags), not localized text.

Templates

• assets/device-matrix.md for OS and device coverage.
• assets/mobile-test-plan.md for test scope and automation.
• assets/release-readiness-checklist.md for release gates.

Resources

• references/framework-comparison.md for choosing between XCUITest, Espresso/Compose, Appium, Detox, Maestro, and Flutter testing.
• references/flake-management.md for flake control guidance.
• references/device-farm-strategies.md for cloud device farm selection and cost optimization.
• references/mobile-performance-testing.md for startup, jank, memory, and battery testing.
• references/cross-platform-test-patterns.md for React Native, Flutter, and KMP testing patterns.
• data/sources.json for curated documentation and device lab links.

Related Skills

• Use qa-testing-ios for iOS specific depth (XCTest, Swift Testing, simctl).
• Use qa-testing-android for Android specific depth (Espresso, Compose Testing, UIAutomator).
• Use qa-testing-playwright for web and webview testing.
• Use software-mobile for mobile architecture guidance.

Fact-Checking

• Use web search/web fetch to verify current external facts, versions, pricing, deadlines, regulations, or platform behavior before final answers.
• Prefer primary sources; report source links and dates for volatile information.
• If web access is unavailable, state the limitation and mark guidance as unverified.
