An application may be tested under conditions associated with a computing device at a remote location by causing the computing device to perform various functions. However, if the computing device has entered into a locked or sleep mode, physical input such as the input of a password, number, or gesture may normally be required to terminate the locked or sleep mode. To enable inputs to be provided to the computing device from a remote location, the device may be paired with a communication device, such as a Bluetooth device, that is able to receive commands from a control device. Inputs from the communication device may be processed in the same manner as inputs from a human input device, such as a Bluetooth keyboard or mouse device, enabling the computing device to be transitioned from the locked or sleep mode without requiring physical input.

System for providing input to a remote device

Mobile devices executing applications may be tested for networking issues by utilizing a test network having proxy access devices placed at different physical locations. Devices may be stored in a secure enclosure that includes a host device. The enclosure includes access controls to prevent unauthorized removal of devices or access to stored data. If an unauthorized access, disconnection from the host device, or disconnection of a device from a power source is detected, devices may be placed into a locked state or data on the devices may be deleted. The enclosure may also include a control device for testing the exchange of Bluetooth data by the devices. The enclosure may also include conductive members placed on the touch sensors of devices for providing simulated touch input to the touch sensors by changing the capacitance of adjacent regions of the touch sensors.

Secure enclosure for devices used to test remote connectivity

A test device may include a performance module to determine entropy values for images, such as of a graphical user interface, to be presented on a display device of the test device. An entropy value for an image may be indicative of a distribution of data values, such as intensity or color values for pixels in the image. Patterns of entropy values over time may provide information indicative of performance of the test device. For example, a constant entropy value over time may indicate the graphical user interface is not changing. In another example, particular patterns of entry values over time may be indicative of presentation of wait indicators or other user interface elements. The entropy values may be used to determine data indicative of performance of the test device. This data may be stored locally, sent to an external device, and so forth.
