Android Services and App Testing

This E-Portfolio assignment focuses on Android Services, exploring concepts like service lifecycle management (onBind(), onStart(), onDestroy()) and their role in background operations without a user interface. The assignment also delves into various types of App Testing: Functional, Laboratory, Performance, Memory Leakage, Interrupt, Usability, and Installation testing, providing a comprehensive understanding of app quality assurance.

Summary of Weekly Topic
The study of week 9 would help in understanding the concept of Android services and
processes that can be executed without the need of a proper UI. The service can be created or
destroyed by the use of the functions like onBind(), onStart(), and onDestroy(). The App testing
would be implemented for developing the improved analysis of the operations and successful
integration of the smart operations. Comprehensive testing Functional testing, Laboratory
testing, Performance testing, Memory leakage – test, Interrupt testing, Usability testing, and
Installation testing are being introduced in this week of study.
