“…Additionally, there are four different density classes: Ldpi (120 dpi), mdpi (160 dpi), hdpi (240 dpi) and xhdpi (320 dpi) [9].Other than that the processor capabilities variation in OS versions is also a major challenge for android native app development. IDE used for Android app developments are Eclipse and Android studio [12].…”

Mobile applications are becoming more and more pervasive. The increase in the amount of mobile applications is accompanied by a growing demand of quality. Software testing is considered an important activity in this context. The authors propose a method named platform for testing mobile applications (PLATEM) and its supporting tool, named PLATOOL, for assisting developers in the automation of system test. PLATEM and PLAtem supporting TOOL (PLATOOL) are able to deal with events of the mobile applications during the automation of system test. One important aspect of PLATEM and PLATOOL is to take advantage of the association of software quality assurance tests and test-driven design tests. Their initial results indicate a promising approach that can be improved and extended to other mobile platforms.

Context:A cross-platform mobile application is an application that runs on multiple mobile platforms (Android, iOS). Several frameworks, have been proposed to simplify the development of cross-platform mobile applications and, therefore, to reduce development and maintenance costs. Between them, the cross-compiler mobile development frameworks, such as Xamarin from Microsoft, transform the application's code written in intermediate (aka nonnative) language to native code for each desired platform. However, to our best knowledge, there is no much research about the advantages and disadvantages of the use of those frameworks during the development and maintenance phases of mobile applications.Objective: The objective of this paper is twofold. Firstly, to present two datasets of questions and answers (Q&A) related to the development of mobile applications using Xamarin. Secondly, to show their usefulness, we present a replication study for discovering the main discussion topics of Xamarin development.Method: We created the two datasets by mining two Q&A sites: Xamarin Forum and Stack Overflow. Then, for discovering the main topics of the questions from both datasets, we replicated a study that applies Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA). Finally, we compared the discovered topics with those topics about general mobile development reported by a previous study.Results: Our datasets have 85,908 questions mined from the Xamarin Forum and 44,434 from Stack Overflow. Between the main topics discovered from those questions, we found that some of them are exclusively related to Xamarin and Microsoft technologies such as the design pattern 'MVVM'.Conclusions: Both datasets with Xamarin-related Q&A can be used by the research community for understanding the main concerns about developing cross-platform mobile applications using Xamarin framework. In this paper, we used it for replicating a studying about topic discovering.
