Crowdsource Signal Performance Testing with Akvelon PMT ToolkitBELLEVUE, Wash., June 21, 2011 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Akvelon launches Performance Management Toolkit(PMT), a revolutionary new way to test real life end-to-end user experience on mobile devices. PMT answers the most significant challenges wireless carriers, handset manufacturers, and mobile application developers stumble upon during network signal and device performance testing -- time to market and cost. Akvelon PMT enables crowdsourcing of the testing process by utilizing a highly scalable and customizable solution that includes server-side test scheduling and a test agent compatible with all Android devices. The client-server architecture allows PMT users to add new test points at no additional cost, either in the laboratory or in the field. The PMT Android test execution agent can be installed on any Android device in a matter of seconds, no additional provisions required. It runs in background mode and does not interrupt normal device usage. As a result, test coverage can be maximized in a brief period of time. The PMT task scheduling server gives testers the ability to schedule recurring tests on devices, including HTTP performance testing, throughput measurements, media streaming, and FTP bulk data transfers. The server collects all test data and provides a powerful reporting engine. A set of built-in performance reports lets engineers analyze and compare test results on different devices or device groups. "All major wireless carriers aim to provide the best quality of calls and network coverage," noted Constantine Korovkin, Akvelon's Vice President of Delivery. "PMT is the Swiss Army Knife, providing advanced network measurement capabilities for engineers in the office and the field." Akvelon, a leading business and technology company headquartered in Bellevue, WA, specializes in CRM consulting, mobile technology, cloud computing, and Microsoft SharePoint consulting.
