How to Run Mobile QA Tests Without Rooted Phones
A QA phone should look like a user's phone.
That sounds obvious, but test labs drift. Devices get rooted. System images get patched. Helper apps pile up. The lab becomes easier to automate and harder to trust.
For many mobile QA checks, you can keep the phones normal.
Use adb. Drive the UI. Wait for real screens. Save artifacts when something breaks.
No root required.
