Research In Motion is the leading manufacturer tested in the DeviceAnywhere Test Center, accounting for 14 of the top 20 devices tested. Testing on BlackBerry devices in general accounted for 28.9 percent of all mobile devices tested. The BlackBerry Bold 9000 was the most tested device in January 2010.
"Because we work directly with over 10,000 application developers from every segment of the mobile ecosystem, across all handset manufacturers and operating systems, we have privileged data on the broader trends in mobile application testing," says company CEO Faraz Syed.
"Customers, analysts and standards bodies have consistently been asking for this data for a long time," Syed says. "So we finally decided to 'open the vault' and share our knowledge, hoping that it benefits the industry as a whole by cutting through some of the hype and speculation that surrounds mobile application development."
DeviceAnywhere plans to continue publishing the report on a monthly basis.
