From manual control to full automation

With Witbe, teams can test their mobile apps any way they need, manually or automatically.

Access and control real mobile devices remotely through the Virtual NOC mosaic (REC) for ad hoc tests or debugging sessions.

Then switch to automation powered by Witbe Agentic AI, where tests are built from simple natural-language prompts and executed across multiple devices.

• Test any app or stream on iOS or Android
• Verify app availability, video performance, and short-form playback
• Automate repetitive QA tasks with intelligent, goal-based scripts
• Get adaptive test scenarios that adjust automatically to new app versions and UI changes

Test on real devices for true accuracy

Mobile users experience your app on real hardware, not emulators. Witbe reproduces these conditions faithfully, letting you measure exactly what users see and hear.

Teams can:

• Measure first-play buffering, rebuffering durations, and z / VQ-ID
• Detect blurriness, blockiness, and jerkiness in real time
• Validate both vertical and horizontal short-form videos
• Correlate video quality and network metrics (RSSI, RSRP, RSRQ, CQI)
• Compare results across devices, OS versions, and networks

Cross-platform coverage that keeps up with change

From global OTT leaders to fast-moving social platforms, Witbe supports testing for any iOS or Android app: Netflix, YouTube, Disney+, TikTok, Instagram, or local streaming services.

It covers live channels, VoD assets, ads, and short-form videos, including DRM-protected and encrypted streams, giving QA and operations teams a complete view of mobile video performance in one place.

Because mobile apps evolve constantly, Witbe’s automation runs continuous regression tests on the latest versions to validate compatibility, playback, and responsiveness as soon as updates roll out.

Actionable insights through centralized reporting

All test results feed into Smartgate, Witbe’s observability platform, which compiles detailed KPIs such as:

• Startup time

• Buffering ratio

• Bitrate stability

• MOS quality

Each test is accompanied by synchronized video recordings, making it easy to verify issues visually.

Reports can be filtered by device model, OS version, app, or network type, helping teams pinpoint root causes and track improvements over time.

These insights allow both quick incident resolution and long-term optimization strategies.

Short-form KPIs focus

Track what matters most for short form vertical video monitoring:

• VQ-MOS and VQ-ID (clean video per minute)
• Initial buffering for the first short and other shorts, plus rebuffering
• Minor/Major thresholds (defaults 250 ms / 500 ms, configurable)
• No-buffering % and Service performance (short load time)
• Availability and Sanity checks for phone and app health

Filter by real-world context:


Application | Platform | Network | Shortform Counter

Plug-and-play mobile testing unit

Witbe’s Video Mobile Automation (VMA) is built for effortless integration into any lab or datacenter: sleek, rackable or tabletop, and plug-and-play.

Each unit arrives pre-assembled and ready to operate, combining precision and practicality in one compact system.

Hardware highlights:
