Problem Summary
Client wanted to launch a manga styled Japanese comic mobile app on various platforms. It is one of the trending genre for kids in the gaming and anime world like Pokemon, Doraemon, Shin-chan, etc. The key objective of the app was to cater to the needs of mental well-being of young children to answer the various needs and questions and to counsel them. The need is to launch the app in almost 20 different languages of which we helped the client launch in about 5 languages.
The Client wanted the app to be developed and released for both Android and IOS platforms, with comic, audio, video. This App had to address the audience’s need for counselling and advise due to the varying requirements there were some challenges that were encountered before and during testing:
- One of the key project challenge was a tight time frame. The Client wanted the app to be developed and released in 17 days.
- Various constraints regarding the application having large number of bugs and enhancement issues, with huge app size, of old version and problem with sound
- effects near deadline with a tight scheduled Agile project management.
- Testing the app on two platforms, different versions and in multiple languages.
- Manually testing the app involves a lot of process(example:Need of physical device, need of expo app, need same Wi-Fi connection etc).
- There were frequent releases of the project. Even if the release had few modifications, manual testing of the release including regression testing would
- consume a lot of effort and time.
- Need of manual and test automation for rigorous testing and to maintain timeline.
- Maintain delivery deadline with Quality & scalability for low cost.
