Architecture
HP Mobile Center is a standalone server that provides mobile device access to different test applications. HP Mobile Center supports a distributed architecture where different test clients can all interact with the same Mobile Center server instance.
The HP Mobile Center environment is made up of the following components:
- The Mobile Center server
- Test devices that are connected to the Mobile Center server
- Distributed Connector (Windows and Linux versions) which can host mobile devices and connects remotely to the Mobile Center server
- A database server, which by default is run on the Mobile Center server itself
- An optional network virtualization server which can be used to test applications running under different network conditions
To set up a testing lab, the mobile devices need to be connected to the server or connector. USB connection mode is supported. Running HP Mobile Center on a virtual machine is supported.
