Implications of Mobile Application Peculiarities to Software
Testing
By keeping in mind the difference between Apps4Mobile
and MobileApps, this section highlights how mobile
applications differ from traditional desktop applications and
the implications on software testing. This analysis, while
building on mobile applications peculiarities defined in [17]
and mobile context-aware applications peculiarities [14],

looking at it from a testing perspective. Table 2 summarizes
peculiarities and implications discussed in the sequel of
