I am looking for a way (maybe impossible) to test my PhoneGap Android application on different phones / hardware. As I am able to obviously test it only on my phone, but some people are reporting that my app doesn’t work / crashes / explodes on their phone. Is there any way how can I test my app on different phones without buying actual device ? Maybe virtually like running Android in an emulator or somehow ?
It is kind of frustrating knowing that the app works perfectly, but some people are not able to even start it…
EDIT: I am certainly testing the app in Android emulator, but that only helps to test on different Android versions. But I am looking for a way how to test in on different phones without actually buying it – if it is possible ?
There is a company called DeviceAnywhere: http://www.deviceanywhere.com/ that seems to be doing that.
But it may cost you. If you don’t want to buy all those devices, somebody else will have to. Plus they have to build the infrastructure to support remote access. Does not sound like something you would get for free.
