Book description
S60 is the world leading smartphone platform. It has gained this position due to the huge developer base innovating on top of the S60 platform, the Product Creation Community who can provide expertise in different device program phases and tasks and the user-friendly interface that the platform provides. S60 Smartphone Quality Assurance introduces each of these themes.
Quality is a diverse concept and it can mean different things in different products. Developing a high quality S60 device is extremely rewarding, although it has some challenges. This book tries to guide device manufacturers by providing knowledge on why these challenges exist and how the device program can tackle them. Readers will be provided with a comprehensive understanding on what it takes for companies to implement an S60 based device in a manageable and meaningful way.
Key Features:
Explanation of the competitive advantages of the S60
Detailed instructions on how to keep the binary compatibility in devices and applications
Wide discussion of Quality Assurance and the best tools to use for success
Complete quality assurance test procedures, and best practice
The first book to market on S60 smartphone creation and QA is an indispensable resource for hardware and software designers, engineers, developers and manufacturers, as well as operators and service providers creating Series 60 and smartphone-specific services. Students of mobile phones will also find this a useful text.
