hello! i am new here… i have a nice question… how can we test our apps (IOS+ANDROID)
for 100% ? simulators dont run some api’s(mapview,webview,etc)… am i wrong?? do i have to upload my app on app store(ios) or google play(android) for testing them?? is there a way to test them direct on my phone without being forced to upload them??

You can build and deploy to devices for testing with or without a developer license for Corona. [import]uid: 8271 topic_id: 30924 reply_id: 123673[/import]
how can i deploy on device? for example i have build a simple android app on windows. how can i check this app on my android phone? [import]uid: 168570 topic_id: 30924 reply_id: 123675[/import]
For iOS you will need to use Corona to either build for device for build for the xcode simulator. You will need either an AdHoc or Developer provisioning profile downloaded and setup prior to launching Corona and use that profile when you build. There are 3 separate ways to get the apps on your device, but I generally tether the device and use Xcode’s Organizer to install the apps on my iDevices.
Android you will generally need to turn on the ability for your device to load apps from non-approved stores/locations. This is android speak is called “side loading” (and you can google that term for plenty of references on setting it up. Basically you can either upload your .apk (after building it with Corona) to a website (usually some hidden folder) and then hit that URL with your browser or you can tether and use the Android too “adb” to install and remove packages from your device. This same process works with the Kindle Fire and the Nook too, though the Nook has a few more hoops to jump through. [import]uid: 19626 topic_id: 30924 reply_id: 123677[/import]
thanks rob… i think working on ios is more simle than android… That ADB i think is a headtouch… pff… There are thousand mobile development tools and but few testing tools… i am basically disapointed!! [import]uid: 168570 topic_id: 30924 reply_id: 123797[/import]
