    Ahmedabad, India, June 24, 2010

    The system provides a web-based user-interface through which the mobile community can quickly and easily use any handset in the same way a real-life user would, through its keys, touch-screen, or QWERTY keyboard, to validate that the handset and its applications work properly.  The system will allow mobile developers to:

    • Test on real mobile Handsets without having to physically obtain them.

    • Test on multiple Handsets and geographies including India!

    • Test on a variety of Handset models and OS versions.

    • Access the latest and most popular handsets.

    • Showcase their mobile application by taking screenshots and video clips.

    • Run automated tests across multiple handsets.

    The systems provide for Automated Solutions as well, through which users will be able to install applications on handsets, automatically send SMS and email messages to the Handset under test and intuitively compare how their mobile web pages are displayed on different phones.

    “We believe India is a very important market for the next level of growth in the mobile industry,” said Eran Yaniv, CEO, Perfecto Mobile. “By partnering with InfoStretch, we are now able to offer our global customers an ability to test on Indian Handsets and carriers.

InfoStretch Services can be leveraged by leading VAS Providers, Mobile Development Companies, Gaming Companies, Media Houses, OEMs and Carriers to improve the quality of their mobile offering, “ Karania added.
