Test Driving
Web vs App

28. +Web Test Driving
Simple
 Deploy code to a random server
 Send a URL to your testers
 See if it is working via access_log/error_log
Enables you to test your prototypes rapidly, lean startup.

29. +Mobile App Test Driving:
Complicated, even on Android
 Install via USB, in person.
 Can’t handle 3+ people, many
interruptions
 Send your package: Email,
Dropbox or where?
 Long “how to install” instruction
that never read.
 Bunch of pitfalls: Settings,
Signature Conflict, etc.
 Logs are recorded on their device
 Connect USB every time or
implement a remote logger
 How to notice updates
 Email, chat or twitter
 Low conversion
 Which version are they using?
 etc, etc.
Too troublesome!

So many interruptions!
Human Task Switches Considered Harmful by Joel Spolsky
You’ll lose your focus on development
You get interrupted from others often,
because they have to ask you to know if there is an update.

31. +
Even if you write an installation guide
TL;DR
Horrible conversion: only 3 over 300+
And three were engineers:
the instruction was never read

33. +Publishing 20+ updates/day internally
with no special effort

Got 27x more in-house testers 
