CanvasM launches comprehensive framework for Mobile Application Testing

CanvasM Technologies, a leading provider of mobility solutions and services to telecom operators and enterprises, today launched the framework for mobile application testing - Mobile Application Testing Ecosystem(MATE). The framework aims to enable an efficient & consistent approach to test mobile applications across multiple devices, platforms and from multiple geographical locations.

Mobile application testing is challenged by complexities introduced due to fragmentation. This imposes recurring investment in infrastructure and changes in test methodologies to ensure good coverage and quality. With increase in number of platforms/devices, mobile application testing cycle time tends to increase or even exceed development cycle time.

CanvasM’s MATE is a suite of solution and services and presents a robust means for end-to-end testing of mobile applications. Along with a centrally hosted test infrastructure that is globally accessible. MATE would offer a complete set of right test apparatus, methodologies and experts for enterprises and telecom operators looking at having their mobile application assured for quality. In-premise or hosted deployment models are supported.

Speaking on the launch of MATE, Sajith Kumar, Vice President, Enterprise Mobility, CanvasM Technologies Ltd said “Along with innovating for newer & highly relevant mobility solutions, we realize the potential in and the need for quality assurance of such solutions, especially when mobility is catering to critical business needs. In keeping with our DNA of innovation, we are delighted to launch MATE as an offering to alleviate the problems faced in mobile application testing, by organizations. This also strengthens our presence in mobility testing space, where we already have a well-established competency in device testing”.



MATE provides seamless journey along the test lifecycle with automated workflow across test creation, test execution, reporting & administration and enables comprehensive test coverage. Leveraging CanvasM’s thought leadership and strategic partnerships, the framework comes with pre-integrated best-in-class tools and can also easily integrate into the existing test set up of organizations. Our test methodologies and assets employed in MATE bring in tremendous amounts of reusability. Increase in test efficiencies due to automation, reduced Total Cost of Ownership, flexible deployment models and experts on demand are some of the many key highlighting features of the framework.
