Abstract

The adoption of mobile application is increasing at enormous rate due to their improved functionality and features. Increased storage and computing power has augmented its utility. However, these mobile applications are still intrinsically limited by a relative lack of bandwidth, computing power, storage and energy compared to desktops. To overcome these limitations, the concept of Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) providing abundant computing power and sufficient storage space besides large infrastructure has evolved. Cloud computing has its impact on all the stages of Software life cycle, including testing of mobile devices. In this paper we have reviewed Testing as a Service (TaaS) provided by Cloud computing. Testing of mobile application is more complex and time consuming as compared to traditional desktop applications. This paper reviews some published results in two major research fields ie cloud computing and TaaS and discusses architecture of cloud computing and TaaS in terms of necessity, features, emerging trends, benefits and gaps while focussing on security and privacy issues for mobile application. When we run our applications on the cloud, we are sharing our critical data with cloud and, therefore, security and privacy of data is a very serious issue to be considered.
