Software Testing for Mobility, Transportation, and Connected Customer Experiences

Mobility systems must function seamlessly in all areas of everyday life: in the vehicle, in mobile apps, in the backend, at the charging station, and at the interface with the real world. Potential errors can impact the software, navigation, the charging experience, route guidance, real-time data, customer loyalty, operational processes, and the quality of digital services throughout complex mobility processes.

Since 2020, TestSolutions has been supporting customers in the mobility sector across various mobility and transportation contexts, including navigation systems, electric mobility/EV charging, customer loyalty programs, rail-related backend and mobile processes, and other digital platforms. Building on this foundation, we support our clients with everything from one-off testing projects to long-term, scalable delivery models.

Industry Expertise

Navigation systems, GIS data, EV charging apps, loyalty applications, mobile point-of-sale systems, backend processes in the rail and mobility sectors, and interfaces to vehicles, infrastructure, and real-time data—we understand the technical interrelationships behind modern mobility software. This understanding forms the foundation for testing activities that are not only technically sound but also functionally relevant.

Complexity Involving the Vehicle, App, Backend, and Real-Time Data

Mobility platforms are highly interconnected. Map data, POI databases, routing algorithms, traffic information, charging station data, vehicle logic, and mobile front ends must work together seamlessly. We provide transparency regarding these interdependencies and align quality assurance with business- and user-critical journeys.

Seamlessly Integrated

We work with the tools and processes already established in your organization—from Jira, Xray, and Azure DevOps to Excel-based test artifacts, bench setups, internal diagnostic tools, GPS trackers, and API testing frameworks. We seamlessly integrate our services into development, validation, and release processes.

Practical Continuing Education

In addition to providing testing services, we also deliver structured knowledge transfer. Through the TestSolutions Academy, we offer training on testing methods, test management, test automation, agile testing, AI testing, and other topics—all practical, accredited, and directly applicable to real-world project requirements.

Software Testing with Mobility Experts

Since 2020, we have been helping companies in the mobility sector reliably secure their software-based products, platforms, and processes—from embedded and automotive contexts to mobile applications, backend systems, and data platforms.

We consistently stand on the side of software users—that is, the companies that want to implement, test, integrate, further develop, and securely operate systems. Our experts bridge the gap between business use cases, technical dependencies, and operational realities—in the field, on the test bench, and in the backend.

Depending on your needs, we can handle one-off specialized tasks, long-term testing campaigns, or scalable delivery responsibilities managed from Germany, for which we can provide additional capacity in Rwanda and India.

Quality assurance where mobility software actually has to work

"Testing mobility software means aligning digital systems with the real world.

What matters isn’t just whether a feature exists technically—but whether navigation, maps, real-time data, charging information, and user guidance work together reliably under real-world conditions.

That is precisely where our strength lies.”

Challenges in Mobility and Navigation Projects

Mobility companies develop and operate systems that must function in dynamic, distributed, and often safety- or mission-critical environments.

The requirements for data quality, user experience, stability, and integrability leave little room for error. Quality assurance must therefore always be considered within the context of actual usage—not in isolation for each individual component.

We are familiar with the following challenges—and many others—from our project experience in various mobility and transportation contexts.

Validation of Mobility Systems in Practice

From testing complex EV routing algorithms to verifying point-of-interest databases under real-world conditions.

The Full Spectrum of Software Testing for Mobility

We are a full-service provider of software testing. This means we don’t just offer individual testing disciplines—we provide the full spectrum of services, tailored to your systems, processes, and risks.

The following service areas provide an overview of typical applications in the mobility sector.

  • Test management and test coordination for complex mobility programs
  • Test automation for APIs, backends, apps, and integration paths
  • Manual testing, exploratory testing, and user journey validation
  • Navigation system testing in the field and on test benches
  • Database, GIS, and POI validation
  • EV charging experience testing and app validation
  • Benchmarking of content providers and APIs
  • Load, performance, and stability testing
  • Test data and test environment management
  • Training and Academy Programs for Internal Teams

Testing EV Charging Apps Under Real-World Conditions

"When testing charging apps, it’s not enough to evaluate individual features in isolation.

What matters is whether the entire user experience works under real-world conditions—from searching for a charging station to checking availability, prices, and connector information, all the way through to actually starting the charging process.

It is precisely at these interfaces between the app, live data, and physical infrastructure that the quality risks we identify arise.”

Professional Services

We support Mobility clients with experienced specialists at the intersection of technical expertise and operational implementation. This includes test managers, test analysts, test automation engineers, and technically skilled testers specializing in navigation, data, APIs, mobile applications, and backend processes.

Typical areas of application include:

  • Navigation System and GIS Testing
  • API and database testing
  • Mobile app testing and loyalty app testing
  • Exploratory field testing and user journey validation

Managed Services

When testing requirements scale up, we also assume responsibility through structured managed services. This includes clearly defined delivery models, coordinated testing campaigns, centrally managed defect processes, services closely aligned with the Test Factory, and flexible scaling across locations.

This approach ensures reliability and transparency, particularly in mobility projects characterized by fluctuating test windows, release pressures, and a high need for coordination among business units, development teams, and suppliers.

Consulting

Not every quality assurance issue is primarily a resource issue. Often, the first step is to gain clarity on risks, processes, roles, test coverage, or tooling.

We advise mobility clients on the following issues, among others:

  • Developing appropriate test strategies for connected system landscapes
  • Maturity analysis and optimization of existing QA processes
  • Selecting tools and frameworks for test management and automation
  • Governance for test data, environments, and release quality
  • Integration of quality assurance into agile and hybrid delivery models

Tools & Technical Implementation

Our teams work with established tools and, when necessary, also use their own frameworks or specialized tools.

In the mobility sector, the range extends from Jira/Xray, Excel, GPS tracking, and mapping software to API test setups, bench test environments, customer-specific analysis tools, and the classic test bench.

For us, the tool is not an end in itself; rather, what matters is the robust validation of your business-critical processes and usage scenarios.
