Chic or Geek, are we adequately testing the Wearable Tech

Is Wearable Tech ready for the marketplace? Are we testing the Wearables effectively? As it touches any and every aspect

of human life, there is a serious need to build a robust Test strategy. Check out this post. .

Let’s check out some key challenges• Bubbling Marketplace• Absence of a standard platform• Legacy issues• Challenges with Development

what are the most effective ways of Performance Testing the Wearables and while designing specific applications• Testing of legacy systems• Managing promotions• Online security & Mobile POS Security

• Bubbling Marketplace: Devices are coming up in the market every day and dying out frequently due to its

ineffectiveness in the market. So, there is hardly any strong reference point and any scope of predictions for the future.

• Absence of a standard platform: Software system implemented for Wearables is varied and not so structured. This requires customized coding and recurring test implementation to gauge the desired outcome.

• Legacy issues: Wearables at some point of time need to sync with redundant legacy systems that create issues in terms of performance. The major concern is, there is no particular decided approach to resolve this gap.

• Challenges with Development: Ineffective displays, inadequate data connectivity, poor battery life, ensuring water resistance, building secure interface, and most importantly, designing the right ergonomics are some of the related challenges for developers.

Connectivity and interoperability across devices is a major area of focus, as most of the Wearable Tech depends on Internet connection or a shared Wi-Fi connection to give the desired results.

• Test Automation for constant vigilance: There is a constant need to confirm the performance of the devices and the results that are getting generated. The only solution is to automate the tests for continuous testing and get speedy evaluations. This will further optimize the code and ensure Continuous Integration.

• Service Virtualization can speed up the process: While Service Virtualization has its own implications and relevance in the software testing space, it holds tremendous benefits in Performance Testing. By emulating the environment, the DevOps teams can leverage virtual services instead of the core production environment. This helps in constant and complete testing with the essential components possibly present in the real environment.

• Load Testing with an Agile approach: While experimenting with new applications and devices, enterprises are looking at cost-effective approaches. The Agile process helps develop higher quality software within stringent timelines and at lowered costs. The objective is to test performance during the development process, while ensuring functional excellence at the same time.
