The benefits of crowdtesting


Crowdsourced testing has many benefits, including the following:

  • Native testers who use native devices for testing offer more reliable application behavior

  • Crowdtesters bring the advantage of covering multiple devices, OSes, configurations, and languages

  • Crowdtesters bring in knowledge of real-world scenarios for given end-user locations

  • Crowdsourced testing offers a more predictable market acceptance, as the crowd acts as a beta user

  • Crowds can be leveraged for user assessments across different stages of application development and serve as structured beta testing

  • Crowdtesting can offer time-to-market advantages and support faster launch times
