Testing the Siebel Handheld Application

Before deploying your application to your end users, be sure to thoroughly test the application by synchronizing to a handheld device. The handheld configuration is downloaded to the device where you can test the functionality and verify that you have the desired behavior. Another equally important aspect of handheld testing is to check to see how much data is downloaded to the device. If too many records are downloaded, this increases the length of time it takes to synchronize the handheld device and slows down the application performance. Check the server log file to see how many records are downloaded for each business component. You must turn on logging to capture this information in the log file.
