Cloud Mobile Applications with IBM Quality Assurance
Mobile app quality is different. Developers like yourself, are responsible for much of the actual testing, but you need end user feedback and quality
metrics to improve user experience and app quality. IBM Mobile Quality Assurance (IBM MQA) provides you the ability to instrument your apps to
capture tester and live-user experiences, including context-aware crash log and in-app bug reports, in-app user feedback and insightful and streamlined
quality metrics.
