How to migrate from Web testing to Mobile?

Question

Android

Hey! Engaged in Web testing for 2 years, now I'm interested in the issue of mobile testing. How to make this transition? What pitfalls are encountered? What skills do you need to upgrade/learn?

Answer 1

All the same.
The main difference is in the area (these are mobile games or applications of some area). It is also worth teaching a little about the platforms themselves, but in general there are no problems.
I tested both Web and Mobile at the same time on a social network.

Answer 2

Read about platform architecture.
Read about the specifics of mobile testing (working in the background, energy efficiency, resource consumption, unstable connection, for example).
Get a new job.
In general, the differences in terms of the testing process are cosmetic.
There are platform specifics that you need to pay attention to (part described above), but this all stems from common sense.
There are specific tools (removing logs, debugging, distributing test builds, etc.), but this is already easier to master in practice, no rocket science.
