More and more of my clients recently asked me about performance engineering best practices for mobile applications. This came as no surprise as we observe the paradigm shift represented by more and more consumers performing more and more of their daily tasks via a mobile device. Here at Shunra we have been working with a best practice methodology for performance testing and optimizing mobile applications, which I will share in the near future, but in the mean time I wanted to share some of the useful resources that we incorporated into our methodology:
