Prueba apps en Android
Parte de Android Jetpack.
Probar la app es una parte integral del proceso de desarrollo de la app. Cuando ejecutas pruebas de manera coherente, puedes verificar la corrección, el comportamiento funcional y la usabilidad de la app antes de lanzarla públicamente.
Las pruebas también ofrecen las siguientes ventajas:
- Avisos rápidos sobre fallas.
- Detección temprana de fallos en el ciclo de desarrollo.
- Refactorización de código más segura, que permite optimizar el código sin preocuparse por las regresiones.
- Velocidad de desarrollo estable, que ayuda a minimizar la deuda técnica
