It's just too slow: Mobile application performance testing

Hi MOT Edinburgh,

To kick off our 2019 season we have Doug Sillars giving us his thoughts on Mobile Performance Testing. Doug is a friend of the MOT meetups, having spoken at meetups in Ireland and France.

Plan of Attack
18:00 - Doors open - Networking
18:45 - Doug!
19:30 - Activity/Lean Coffee
20:30 - Post Meetup Social (AKA pub)

Synopsis below
Mobile apps and websites are now the predominant ways that users interact with brands. Research has shown that slow sites and apps lose customer engagement. Despite this, most mobile sites and apps have performance issues that can be easily resolved once diagnosed.

In this talk, we will walk through steps to diagnose network performance bottlenecks in mobile services. We'll discuss real world examples and how they were resolved. Attendees will leave this talk armed with the tools to test, diagnose and resolve the top network performance issues that affect mobile today.

Thanks and Sponsorship

MVP Live by Bad Dinosaur

Who is this for?

This event is free to attend for startups, entrepreneurs and anyone else interested in why building a Minumum Viable Product can be such a successful route when building a digital product. The idea behind an MVP is to prove your concept with an initial version of your product which has enough features to satisfy early adopters.

What is the format?

We will begin the event with an informal networking session, followed by a short introduction from Bad Dinosaur. This will be followed by a series of short talks from entrepreneurs and startups who have gone through the MVP process and a chance for some Q&A. Afterwards will be a second chance for networking.

Bad Dinosaur is a software development company based in Edinburgh. Our mission is to provide a complete service for anyone who wants to build a digital product, taking you from an idea in your head to your first paying customers and beyond.
