Mobile App Testing: Using Emulators, Real Devices, and Mobile Device Cloud Testing When creating mobile apps, you always want to make certain that they look good and function correctly with as few defects and dissatisfactions as possible.

It is becoming imperative for enterprises to develop a solid mobile strategy…
Recently, I delivered the keynote at a technical conference in Winnipeg, Manitoba called PrairieDevCon. I entitled the keynote “The Coming Tsunami” to paint a vivid picture for the audience that predicts a wave of change (and opportunity) about to hit enterprises as a result of mobile technologies. PrairieDevCon is a conference that targets technology enthusiasts in Canada’s Prairie Provinces (Manitoba and Saskatchewan). I really love this event as it’s extremely well run and speakers come…
