4. Testing in Releases

Release testing ensures that software meets requirements and is suitable for its intended use, including non-functional aspects like performance under various conditions. It is crucial for conducting final end-to-end testing and requires real devices and infrastructure for certain tests. The document also provides resources for further learning about different testing types.

What is Release Testing?
Is the software ready to be released?

Release testing checks that the application fulfills


the requirements and is good enough for the
planned uses

It also tests non-functional requirements:

• Does the mobile app work with limited


network connectivity?
• Can the app handle large numbers of users
and large numbers of requests?
• Does the app respond well on all the different
types of expected devices?

3
Why is Release Testing Important?

• Some tests have a large amount of overhead


and it’s hard to do them in the iterations

• Some tests have to be done on real devices


and an infrastructure to support this has to
be in place

• Only at this stage, is the application ready to


do the final end-to-end testing
