You can always tell when a post on here is made by an Indian/South Asian
Mobile tester: *tests mobile*
And? How does that matter
The posts aren’t funny
Because nobody speaking English as a first language calls a cell phone a "mobile".
Between that, missing grammatical articles, and the atrocious use of punctuation (kind of silly for a programmer to suck at punctuation, but I can understand it from a QA tester I guess), it's just obviously a meme by someone who speaks English only when necessary. Given English is a lingua franca in India, a lot of broken English memes come from there and garner a bit of a reputation in the anglosphere.
I'm just saying don't expect programmers to not be annoyed by details like that; syntax errors are our jobs to fix.
Geez bro , be careful to not fall from that tower of superiority complex
I can confirm that people speaking English as a first language do in fact use the term “mobile”.

Who uses an actual phone to test, should use an emulator
Emulators probably cannot simulate a lot of real-life scenarios an actual user will face.
Most testers use actual phones and even multiple phones. Emulator testing is never enough
Yea, learned this the hard way
Who uses an actual emulator to test, should use your imagination
I found many issues with emulators that never occurred on actual devices and vice versa. I prefer to have an actual device to also properly observe the performance of the apps
So you don't care about how easy the buttons are to reach, if it is usable and intuitive on an actual touch screen?
You use an emulator for test automation. For manual tests just use a phone it's so much more reliable.
Emulators use too much RAM, using an actual phone is faster
Are here any manual developers?
You mean a technical writer?
