Native App Test Goals

Goal is to collaborate with Development and QA Teams in improving User ranking of Apps by resolving Performance issues before they show up in production.

Create a good performance engineering strategy that includes performance testing ,synthetic production Monitoring and RUM.

We would also like to maintain ongoing Trend Analysis showing App Performance across versions and platforms.
