As mobile applications become central to business success, the need for rapid, scalable, and precise testing has never been more critical. Traditional manual testing methods are needed for the demands of modern agile and continuous integration (CI) environments. Kobiton addresses these challenges head-on, providing businesses with the necessary tools to accelerate delivery cycles, boost automation, and maintain the highest app quality.
Kobiton’s Mobile Device Cloud offers highly responsive access to various real devices. This ensures that apps are tested under real-world conditions, avoiding the limitations of simulators and emulators. Kobiton provides access to the devices and configurations necessary to ensure compatibility and performance. The Device Lab Management functionality allows teams to manage their mobile testing environments. Whether opting for on-premises, hybrid, or cloud setups, Kobiton simplifies the process of organizing, tracking, and scaling device use for testing, providing a unified, efficient platform for QA and development teams.
With Mobile Test Execution, Kobiton allows teams to perform manual and automated tests on real devices quickly and accurately. The platform supports functional, performance, security, and usability tests, helping developers detect issues early in the development lifecycle. The Appium Script Generation feature further enhances automation by converting manual tests into Appium scripts, enabling rapid script creation without starting from scratch. Kobiton’s AI-augmented testing leverages machine learning to automate the detection and fixing of issues, enabling higher automation coverage and reducing human error.
Kobiton’s Test Results and Collaboration tools enable real-time insights into testing progress and results. Its session explorer provides a movie-like experience, allowing users to pinpoint issues and collaborate seamlessly with development teams quickly. This integration fosters faster feedback loops, enabling teams to resolve defects and improve app quality without delays.
The platform also includes No-Code Validations, which automate visual, accessibility, and performance testing without complex coding. This makes testing more accessible to non-technical team members, empowering a broader group to participate in ensuring app quality. Visual Testing capabilities help detect UI discrepancies. Mobile Performance Testing provides developers with valuable metrics on CPU usage, memory consumption, battery drain, and network latency, all essential for optimizing app behavior.
Security is a top priority for Kobiton. The platform adheres to rigorous security protocols, including Single Sign-On (SSO) and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), and complies with industry standards like ISO 27001:2013 and SOC 2 Type 2. This ensures that all testing data is kept secure, making Kobiton a trusted partner for enterprises with stringent privacy and compliance requirements. Mobile Accessibility Testing is another key feature, with the platform automatically validating accessibility against WCAG 2.1 guidelines. This includes checking touch target sizes, color contrast, and UI element labeling, ensuring that apps are accessible to all users, including those with disabilities.
We’re transforming mobile testing with AI-powered automation, empowering teams to accelerate delivery, ensure precision, and scale effortlessly, all while enhancing mobile app experiences globally. — Sean Barry, CEO
For businesses transitioning to automated testing, Kobiton offers Scriptless Test Automation, enabling teams to create automated tests quickly and easily without writing code. This feature empowers non-technical users to participate in testing, making testing more inclusive and efficient. Additionally, Appium Self-Healing ensures that tests continue to run even when app configurations or UI elements change, reducing maintenance time and keeping tests stable.
Kobiton’s Real-Device Testing ensures that apps are tested on actual devices, offering more accurate insights than simulators. This is essential for detecting performance issues like battery consumption, network problems, and device-specific bugs. By conducting tests in real-world conditions, businesses can optimize app performance and minimize the risk of user abandonment due to performance flaws.
Mobile Test Management centralizes test suite creation, enabling teams to manage test execution, track results, and analyze insights from one platform. It also supports mass remediation, allowing businesses to quickly address issues across multiple devices and OS versions, ensuring faster time-to-market and consistent app quality.
Combining real-device access, AI-powered automation, robust security, and powerful test management capabilities, Kobiton enables enterprises to streamline their testing workflows, improve productivity, and deliver high-quality mobile apps faster. The company continues to provide the flexibility, scalability, and security needed to meet the demands of today’s fast-paced mobile development environment.
