UI/UX Testing – Test Scenarios/Cases
UI/UX Testing – Test Scenarios/Cases
To keep controls as unobtrusive as possible for instance by fading them out if
they are not used for a while.
Make it possible for users to go back to a previous screen for instance by adding
a back or cancel button
The main function of the app should be apparent immediately. It should speak
for itself.
Use at most one action on the screen that is highlighted as the most likely for
the user. (Example: in iOS a blue button represents the default or most likely
action).
UI/UX Testing – Test Scenarios/Cases
Minimize user actions by using a picker or a table view where users can select a
certain choice over a data entry field where users have to type a choice
In an app, the user should not be able to store files locally, outside the app
sandbox.
In an app, the user should not be exposed to the permissions of a specific file
If there is a long list of data to scroll trough, provide a search option above the
list.
UI/UX Testing – Test Scenarios/Cases
If performance is slow, indicate a progress status icon (“Loading…”), preferably
with specific message.
In case of ‘live’ filtering of data while the user enters his search query, verify the
performance.
The appearance of buttons that perform standard actions are not altered in the
app (for instance: refresh, organize, trash, Reply, back, etc.)
Do not use standard buttons for other functions then that they are normally used
for
UI/UX Testing – Test Scenarios/Cases
The app should respond to all changes in device orientation, as per the design
Tappable elements should be about 7x7 mm in size, using the pixel density of
the target device you can calculate the amount of pixels (chapter documentation
contains a link to different devices compared).
Do not redefine gestures in your app that have a standard meaning (example:
swiping from top to bottom enables the notification center)
Requirement to login is delayed in the app as long as possible
UI/UX Testing – Test Scenarios/Cases
If the app is stopped at an unexpected time, user data should be saved locally
and available at start-up.
Users should be warned of the consequences of deleting a document
Keyboard adjusts to expected input (for instance numbers/letters when
expected).
Are inactive buttons clearly distinguished from active buttons?

App Submission Results
Application Status
At the top of your application’s profile page, you will find the status of your application
submission. The following labels will explain the status of your application. Once your
application status changes, an email will be sent informing you of this change and any
issues or reasons for the change if applicable.
App Submission Results
To Be Approved:
Your application has not been reviewed or is currently being reviewed. Note that if you
do not set your application to be “Published” (on the Edit node), it will not be reviewed.
It may take up to 4 business days for your application status to change.
App Submission Results
Approved:
Your application has met our guidelines and is now live in our catalogue if you have
set the application to be published. Once an application has been approved, it can
take a variable amount of time before it appears on the SlideME website and SAM
catalogs. Please wait at least 24 hours before submitting a support ticket regarding
approved applications that are not appearing in the catalog.
App Submission Results
To Be Reviewed:
Your application is currently queued for an additional review to ensure the changes or
updates you have made meet our guidelines or the editor’s requests. Changing the
application title or changing/adding permissions will place your application back into
the review queue. Note that you cannot make any changes to your application once it
has been set "To Be Reviewed". If you wish to make any additional corrections while it
is in the review queue, you can request your application be placed in Denied status by
opening a support ticket and including the URL of your application. It may take up to 2
business days for your application status to change.
App Submission Results
Denied:
Your application review was completed, but your submission did not meet our
guidelines. You can re-submit the app with the required changes.
App Submission Results
Forbidden:
Your application was rejected and is not permitted on app store. The reason for
rejection is sent via email and may be due to our content guidelines or developer
behavior. Forbidden applications are not open for appeal and should not be re-
submitted again (even with a different packageName or under a different account) or
your account may be flagged for spamming and/or result in loss of developer
privileges. Once an application is Forbidden, we will no longer accept it no matter how
many times it is re-submitted.
App Rejection Examples
S.No Project Reason for App Store Rejections
1 SoCoSports Playbook External browser is launched while making payments by a playbook user
Reason from Apple: Apps that link to external mechanisms for purchases or subscriptions to be used
in the app, such as a “buy" button that goes to a web site to purchase a digital book, will be rejected
2 CA Clarity Private API’s are used which are outside Apple SDK
3 Digidata Leap drive The amount of data to be downloaded is more & the user has chosen to do so through GPRS/3G. As
per the HIG, the app has to prompt the user with a message to switch to WiFi or any other faster
mechanism
4 Expense Manager The app used standard logos from outside such as Google logo, Microsoft logo
5 Red Eye Keypad is not handled properly (appropriate keypad is not shown to the user i.e., when the user is
expected to enter a mobile #, the keypad allows the user to enter alpha-special characters & vice
versa behavior)
6 Seven Wonders Network connectivity problem i.e., the app doesn’t show appropriate message in the absence of
network connectivity & it continues to search for the network and hangs the app after a while leading
to a crash
7 eMDs The user is asked to BUY/PURCHASE (the app/a feature) from inside the app which is against the
HIG rules
9 Furrer Jacot FJ app has very limited functionality & contains nothing other than jewellery images (this app has
never made to app store)
Reason from Apple: We found that your app provides a limited set of features and functionality, and
focuses primarily on marketing or promoting your business, which is not in compliance with the App
Store Review Guidelines.
9 Red Eye V1 The app we submitted to Apple doesn’t say that Apple is not a sponsor for the sweepstakes &
contests. Hence, it is rejected by App store.
Reason from Apple: The app was rejected as per the Official rules for sweepstakes and contests,
must be presented in the app and make it clear that Apple is not a sponsor or involved in the activity
in any manner.

  • 29. UI/UX Testing – Test Scenarios/Cases To keep controls as unobtrusive as possible for instance by fading them out if they are not used for a while. Make it possible for users to go back to a previous screen for instance by adding a back or cancel button The main function of the app should be apparent immediately. It should speak for itself. Use at most one action on the screen that is highlighted as the most likely for the user. (Example: in iOS a blue button represents the default or most likely action).
  • 30. UI/UX Testing – Test Scenarios/Cases Minimize user actions by using a picker or a table view where users can select a certain choice over a data entry field where users have to type a choice In an app, the user should not be able to store files locally, outside the app sandbox. In an app, the user should not be exposed to the permissions of a specific file If there is a long list of data to scroll trough, provide a search option above the list.
  • 31. UI/UX Testing – Test Scenarios/Cases If performance is slow, indicate a progress status icon (“Loading…”), preferably with specific message. In case of ‘live’ filtering of data while the user enters his search query, verify the performance. The appearance of buttons that perform standard actions are not altered in the app (for instance: refresh, organize, trash, Reply, back, etc.) Do not use standard buttons for other functions then that they are normally used for
  • 32. UI/UX Testing – Test Scenarios/Cases The app should respond to all changes in device orientation, as per the design Tappable elements should be about 7x7 mm in size, using the pixel density of the target device you can calculate the amount of pixels (chapter documentation contains a link to different devices compared). Do not redefine gestures in your app that have a standard meaning (example: swiping from top to bottom enables the notification center) Requirement to login is delayed in the app as long as possible
  • 33. UI/UX Testing – Test Scenarios/Cases If the app is stopped at an unexpected time, user data should be saved locally and available at start-up. Users should be warned of the consequences of deleting a document Keyboard adjusts to expected input (for instance numbers/letters when expected). Are inactive buttons clearly distinguished from active buttons?

  • 49. App Rejection Examples S.No Project Reason for App Store Rejections 1 SoCoSports Playbook External browser is launched while making payments by a playbook user Reason from Apple: Apps that link to external mechanisms for purchases or subscriptions to be used in the app, such as a “buy" button that goes to a web site to purchase a digital book, will be rejected 2 CA Clarity Private API’s are used which are outside Apple SDK 3 Digidata Leap drive The amount of data to be downloaded is more & the user has chosen to do so through GPRS/3G.

Hence, it is rejected by App store. Reason from Apple: The app was rejected as per the Official rules for sweepstakes and contests, must be presented in the app and make it clear that Apple is not a sponsor or involved in the activity in any manner.
