BOSTON, MA--(Marketwire - January 18, 2011) - uTest, the world's largest software testing marketplace, today launched its first iPhone and iPad apps to provide its customers and testers with the ability to access their software testing projects on-the-go. With uTest customers spanning six continents and its 30,000+ testers spanning the globe, the apps enable uTest's community to stay on top of complex and dynamic global testing projects 24 hours a day, 7 days a week -- wherever they are, whenever they need to.
With thousands of uTesters owning iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch devices, uTest enlisted its own community to do five cycles of mobile app testing for its new iOS apps. This increased app quality enabled uTest to speed through the App Store approval process in just 1.5 business days, compared with the typical 1-2 week/s wait-time that many developers face.
Customers can now manage-on-the-go and:
- Keep real-time tabs on their functional, load, and usability testing projects
- Approve, reject and track reported defects and surveys from their iOS devices
- Communicate directly with testers
- Review screenshots and video attachments that highlight defects
Testers can now test-on-the-go and:
- Accept invitations to uTest projects and submit defects or surveys
- Test any app directly from their iPhones or iPads
- Upload defect screenshots and videos
- Respond to inquiries from customers and other testers
- View their earnings from uTest projects
"Increasingly, retail, social and media apps have development and launch cycles that span 24 hours a day, around the globe," said Doron Reuveni, uTest CEO. "Additionally, our customers and testers are increasingly reviewing and testing apps on evenings and weekends when they're not in front of their computer. With uTest's iPhone and iPad apps, our customers can stay on top of their mission-critical testing projects anytime, anywhere."
The new apps are free of charge and now available for download in the iTunes App Store. To download the uTest iPhone and iPad apps, or for more information, visit http://apps.utest.com/ios.
