LONDON-AnywhereYouGo.com, an independent community of wireless developers, launched an independent lab to test Wireless Application Protocol applications across multiple devices and gateways, providing an extensive range of testing and analysis services to help developers and information technology managers accelerate deployment of new WAP applications.
“The services we’re launching today-both lab-based and online-respond to the critical industrywide need for independent testing,” said Lee Wright, chief executive officer of AnywhereYouGo.com. “Developers at systems integrators, agencies and new WAP start-ups have repeatedly told us about the problems they face moving from development to deployment, only to find that the application’s performance falls short of expectations.”
The company noted that in tests just completed using the new testing tool across 50 WAP sites, 28 percent had errors that were serious enough to prevent users from viewing pages and completing transactions.
