We're launching Roobin this Friday on a beta so we can notice if it's working properly and optimize it before it is open to everybody, so when we make the Official Launching we can minimize errors and maximize user experience. Roobin is a WhatsApp assistant. It's able to manage calendars, write emails, send emails, manage todoist, transcribe voice messages, translate them, also text, be a remninder, and many etc. So even though I'm using it for several weeks now, there is always something to improve or to optimize. This is my product: https://www.producthunt.com/post... I would appreciate the support

@ximriqtur The first one is a beta tester phase and early access to new improvements after the Official launch. Also, constant and permanent feedback from users (current and potential). Although we are in the early stage of the Beta-testing phase, we have a bunch of useful productivity apps to integrate to Roobin, and many other functions we are adding soon. Basically, we have a short-, medium-, and long-run agenda of 5 years that will be updated permanently to keep improving Roobin. Our to-do list is enormous. This is the beginning.

Feature testing before release is crucial for several reasons: 1) Bug Identification It helps identify and rectify bugs or issues within the new feature. This ensures a smoother user experience and prevents negative impressions. 2) User Experience Optimization Feature testing allows you to evaluate how users interact with the new functionality. This insight is invaluable for optimizing the user experience before the feature reaches a wider audience. 3) Compatibility Checks It ensures that the new feature is compatible with different devices, browsers, and operating systems, preventing any functionality breakdowns. 4) Performance Assessment Feature testing helps assess the performance of the new functionality, including factors like speed and responsiveness, ensuring optimal performance under various conditions. 5) Security Validation Testing helps identify and address any security vulnerabilities in the new feature, protecting user data and maintaining the overall integrity of the application. 6) User Feedback Integration Early testing provides an opportunity to gather user feedback, allowing for necessary adjustments and improvements before the feature is released to a larger audience. 7) Cost Savings Identifying and fixing issues early in the development process is more cost-effective than addressing them post-release. Feature testing contributes to overall project cost savings. 8) Quality Assurance It ensures that the new feature aligns with the overall quality standards of the application, maintaining a positive reputation and user trust. In summary, feature testing is a preemptive measure that safeguards the quality, performance, and user satisfaction of a software product before it is released into the market.
