Reactive Programming for iOS with RxSwift Training Course

Posted on by admin

Duration

7 hours (usually 1 day including breaks)

Requirements

  • An understanding of Swift 3 code.
  • Experience with with iOS application development.

Audience

  • Experienced Swift and iOS app developers who are seeking to learn reactive programing in Swift with RxSwift
  • Developers experienced with one of Rx’s various other platform ports who are interested in learning reactive extensions for Swift

Overview

Reactive Extensions (or Rx) is a multi-platform suite of libraries designed for developing asynchronous and event-based applications using observable sequences and LINQ-style query operators. RxSwift is a functional library intended to ease the difficulty associated with Swift asynchronous and concurrent coding for iOS apps.

This instructor-led, live training introduces participants to reactive techniques offered by RxSwift for managing the transferring and combining of asynchronous data streams, handling simple observable sequences, and the architecture and development of responsive, flexible, and industry scalable iOS applications.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the basic concepts behind reactive programing in Swift 3.
  • Turn various items such as arrays and events into observable sequences.
  • Apply various filters to observable sequences, transform and combine observable sequences.
  • Write Unit tests against Rx Code.
  • Effectively utilize blind data from user interface elements.

Format of the Course

  • Interactive lecture and discussion.
  • Lots of exercises and practice.
  • Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.

Introduction to Mobile Application Testing – Course Assessment

Course Description

Mobile application testing entails testing software applications developed for mobile devices for their functionality, durability, and consistency. This free online course begins with a brief introduction to the practice of mobile application testing. You will learn about the importance of mobile app development and testing the application after development. We will show you mobile app consumer spending statistics and a projection of mobile applications’ revenue through paid downloads and in-app advertisements globally. Furthermore, we’ll guide you through the types of mobile app testing and how the testing is done. We will also cover five key points to note while testing mobile applications. Moreover, you will explore some of the terminologies used in mobile application development. These keywords or terminologies are only used in mobile application development and testing. Knowing and understanding them will help you in any interview to become a mobile application tester.

Next, you will study real mobile devices, emulators, and simulators. We will explain the characteristics, similarities, and differences between these devices regarding Android and iOS. Then, we will explore the different types of mobile applications available. We’ll highlight native, hybrid, and web applications, as well as some strategies to test all your mobile applications. These strategies are based on the course instructor’s own experience with mobile application testing. We will show you how to test apps on the oldest and latest versions of supported devices and how to follow App Store guidelines so that your apps are not rejected during the review process. Also, you will be trained to effectively write test cases and bug reports for your mobile apps. We will explain the attributes necessary for writing these reports and how to write them on real-life devices.

Furthermore, we’ll study types of interrupts testing, scenarios of interrupts testing, and few examples of interruptions in mobile devices. Then, you will study network testing, why it is important on slow networks like 2G, and other aspects of network testing. Also, the instructor will talk about installation testing and how to perform installation testing on different operating systems and devices. Additionally, the instructor will discuss push notifications and how to test mobile push notifications. We will also address the benefits of using push notifications. We will highlight the various app distribution tools needed to distribute test build apps to testers and other stakeholders. Some challenges testers face when testing an application will be analyzed. Towards the end of the course, We will also train you to prepare a resume for a job as a mobile app tester. This course is beneficial if you have little or no knowledge of mobile application testing and are starting from scratch. Enrol today.
