Mobile-Application

Did you know that nearly half of Smart Phone and mobile device users are unhappy with how business mobile applications perform on their devices? Recently, a study revealed that 43% of smart phone users and 41% of tablet users found their mobile business apps less than impressive, when considering simplicity of function or easy access to critical information. When planning for a mobile application, there are many factors to consider if you want to ensure a successful implementation and business user adoption.

User Involvement: First, the IT staff must ensure that the user and employee community is involved in planning and reviewing the requirements and the prototype. If the business wants to avoid a misstep, it must involve the users upfront and understand user skills, the way users need to interact with the application, the types of devices they will use to access information, and the workflow and processes they must employ to complete a task. Involve your users early and they will become your best advocates and champions.

Software Testing

The concept
This software testing approach dissects an application’s functionality without delving into the software’s internal structure or its working mechanism. The testing is versatile in the sense that its applicability spreads across every domain of testing with the spectrum spanning integration testing, acceptance and system testing to lower level unit testing.
Procedure
The testing is done on the premise that the programming of the software has been done in a robust manner flawlessly. The tester possesses knowledge of the outputs returned by typical inputs but usually is in the dark when it comes to knowing the specific programming constructs that yield the outcome. Test cases are developed based on specifications/ needs pertaining to the performance expected out of the software. The application’s extraneous characteristics provide assumptive data for the test with the gamut encompassing needs, specifications and design codes. Non-functional testing is also allowed. The tester picks inputs that may be valid or invalid and then ascertain the correct or desired output.

Roland’s Sad Tale: eCommerce Demands Good Design, & Knowledge of Target Audience

My friend Roland sells football memorabilia. Last year, Roland signed up to do a holiday sale at a local community center. When he got the venue, he found that none of the prospective customers wanted his products. The event had been advertised as a ‘handicraft’ show, featuring hand knit baby sweaters, handmade aprons, blown glass tree ornaments, etc. Roland didn’t sell any football memorabilia that day

Why am I telling you this story? To prove the adage, ‘Know your audience’. That adage applies to any kind of customer, including an eCommerce client! If you are launching, migrating or upgrading an eCommerce site, you must design a site to attract and retain your target audience. It is important to understand more than the technical aspects of the site. Yes, performance, architecture and mobility is crucial but if you don’t know your target customers, their buying behavior and preferences, you will not get the results you want.

Net neutrality is synonymous with open internet wherein no restriction is imposed on the content or communication mode viewed or used by individuals. In the technical jargon, it implies that the Internet Service Provider cannot block or discriminate against any internet application over its network. In common parlance, when net neutrality is violated by ISPs, it is equivalent to saying that your phone company decides which contacts you can speak to over its network and what you can say.

Why is it important?
Net neutrality promotes free speech and allows us to avail applications that can significantly bring down the amount earlier expended on conventional modes of communication.
