Testin Zhang Pengfei: Startups no longer need to maintain testing teams

Alibaba Cloud officially launched the "Maker+" plan today, joining forces with nearly 100 partners including ZhenFund, IDG, Sinovation Ventures, Testin, Hangzhou Zhuantang, and Tsinghua Science Park to jointly build China's largest Internet entrepreneurship platform.

"Maker+" will combine tens of billions of funds to provide a series of entrepreneurial support ranging from development components, distribution and promotion, office space, pre- and post-investment to cloud service resources.

At the "Maker+" conference, Testin won the "2014-2015 Developer Service Platform Award". Testin's Zhang Pengfei gave a speech, saying that the entrepreneurial team no longer needed to maintain a testing team. As the world's largest independent third-party mobile application and game cloud testing service platform, Testin provides entrepreneurs with three core services: QAMaster, which focuses on App's automated real-machine cloud testing, geek expert testing, and application performance analysis management, providing mobile application and game developers with indispensable mobile App quality assurance, focusing on solving problems that most developers cannot effectively overcome, such as mobile terminal fragmentation, application compatibility, application performance, and application stability.

At the beginning of his speech, Testin's Zhang Pengfei put forward several suggestions, hoping that entrepreneurs can avoid taking detours on the road to entrepreneurship.

At present, there are many high-quality projects on the "Maker+" platform. During the trial operation period alone, 141 maker projects raised 270 million yuan in financing. A Shenzhen startup called "12308" realized ticket booking in 61 cities across the country in just over half a year. Its website functions similarly to the 12306 platform. They abandoned the traditional website construction plan of purchasing hardware equipment and renting data centers, and adopted a new cloud architecture, saving huge hardware and labor costs. The initial IT investment was less than 50,000 yuan.

"Maker+" will provide free office space for makers in Beijing, Shanghai, Wuhan, Shenzhen and Hangzhou in the first phase. In the future, it is planned to attract more alliance members to join "Maker+", covering all the core cities of Internet entrepreneurship in China and cultivating millions of makers.

Cloud computing is changing the way a new generation of Internet entrepreneurs start businesses. As remote computing and storage become public services, they can be accessed anytime and anywhere. This puts makers on the same starting line as large companies in terms of the most vexing IT issues. The situation of "mass innovation" and "innovation by everyone" will become a reality faster.
