How to simulate/test the offline functionality of Pega Mobile Application
I want to test the application created for mobile.
Is there any way to simulate/test the offline functionality of that Pega mobile application?
Note : Instead of build an application and install into device.
Hi,
Automated load testing offline is difficult and costly to set up. You can simulate the server load from offline devices by capturing the network traffic off of the device using Fiddler 2 remote proxy capture, or another network diagnostic tool.
Starting 7.3, Client for windows (https://pdn.pega.com/exchange/components/pega-client-windows) would be a good place to start but you'll miss out on platform-specific functions like Camera, GPS, etc.
Client for windows have same functionality as browser. We can use instead of browser but I need to check offline functionality.
This is not true. You seem to have missed key feature of Client for windows - 'Offline support'.
