Software testing is one of the most basic, yet essential factors in the mobile gaming industry. The types of mobile app testing include functional testing, a back to basics test that ensures the functional behavior of the application is working as expected. Performance testing covers common issues such as batter use, internet connection loads, memory loss, and more.

There are other types of testing that include:

- Usability
- Compatibility
- Interface
- Services
- Security

Discuss with the interviewer the three types of mobile testing in which you are best versed.

"The three mobile app testing types that come to mind first include usability, security, and installation. For usability, it is imperative to check for friendliness and flexibility. When security testing, I always check to ensure that the application's data is safe. And, with installation testing, it's imperative to know that the game can support installation and uninstallation seamlessly."
