Quotes:

(4:04-4:32) “The reason why we need a tool like ours is that there are certain limitations that come with the native testing opportunities that Apple or Google provides. Like I mentioned, coming up with a new game idea or new app idea, and wanting to figure out what to call the app itself would be something that you couldn’t test with the actual testing pages because they don’t support any testing unless you actually develop the app already and have it up and running.”
