Abstract
Development of mobile applications is a complex task due to the specific characteristics of the environment. Although different proposals to offer more practical and systematic processes have been published within the so-called mobile software engineering, it is still necessary to devise more advanced methods, especially in the area of software quality assurance. This chapter presents a set of practices to support quality control by developers based on the adoption of methods from traditional software engineering focused on effective requirements specification and associated methods for generating practical testing procedures.

A Model for Motivation-Driven Assignment Design
A term used heaving in software development to reflect the precise, non-ambiguous specification in writing of exactly what is required of the functionality of a software system. This term may also be used to reflect any specification of a set of requirements for any product though the expectations of its level of detail may vary depending on for whom the requirements are written. Many times, the term is reduced to just “Requirements.”
