iPhone test automation - benchmark tools?

Question

Hi we are expanding one of our projects in a major bank to include access via mobile devices. We are evaluating a few tools - inc. perfecto mobile, experitest and deviceanywhere. From our initial evaluation perfecto and device anywhere cover a larger set of handsets inc feature phones. Experitest on the other hand is strong and simple to operate with smartphones(iphone, android etc). Can anyone share experience from using these tools for large scale projects? we are mainly concerened re stability, ability to work with QTP and support considerations (support for new devices etc).

Answer 1

I have used DeviceAnywhere extensively. Perfecto, not that much, after a pretty dissapointing trial period. DA has support/add-ins for QTP and QC. Perfecto does not cover QC. Perfecto is not faster than DA, since most of their devices are in Israel, and not the US. DA has a few datacenters in the US and abroad, hence you have a better chance to get better performance. DA has an pretty long list of Enterprise and Carrier customers...while Perfecto seems like a very small company. Compare their website quality-it's pretty obvious which one looks more professional...You should try them both and make up your mind...
