Evaluation of an application

摘要

It is presented a method for evaluating an application intended to be installed in a wireless terminal of a cellular network. The method is performed in an application development device and comprises the steps of: obtaining performance data associated with an execution of the application in a test wireless terminal in a simulated or real cellular network, the performance data being obtained for each cellular data session of the execution of the application, each cellular data session being defined as a period when the test wireless terminal is in a cellular network connection state when data transfer is possible; and evaluating the performance data by comparing the in performance data with reference performance data, the comparison being based on the duration of each cellular data session.

1. A method for evaluating an application intended to be installed in a wireless terminal of a cellular network, the method being performed in an application development device and comprising the steps of:
obtaining performance data associated with an execution of the application in a test wireless terminal in a simulated or real cellular network, the performance data being obtained by the application development device for each cellular data session between the test wireless terminal and the application development device during the execution of the application, each cellular data session being defined as a period when the test wireless terminal is in a cellular network connection state when data transfer is possible; evaluating the performance data by comparing the performance data for each cellular data session with recommended reference performance data of an application provider, the recommended reference performance data determined based on the duration of each cellular data session and corresponding to the obtained performance data, wherein evaluating the performance further comprises comparing the performance data with a strict subset of the recommended reference performance data, the strict subset being defined by a range of durations of the cellular data sessions, for recommended reference performance data, in which the duration of the cellular data session falls; and presenting recommendations indicating recommended performance data values.
