DIY Guide: Testing Your Proxy SDK Integration Before Launch

So, you've decided to add a Proxy SDK to your app—smart move! Whether you're trying to improve data exchange or explore new app monetization solutions, making sure everything works smoothly before launch is key. Testing early can save you headaches later and help you spot any issues while they're still easy to fix.

First things first, double-check your SDK documentation. Each Proxy SDK is a little different, and the setup steps can vary. Go through the instructions step-by-step like you’re doing it for the first time, even if you’re already familiar. Sometimes it’s the small things—like a missed permission or a wrong API key—that cause big problems.

Next, run your app in a test environment. This means using a development version of your app that isn’t live yet. Use test servers, mock data, and logging tools to see how your Proxy SDK behaves. Are the requests going where they should? Are the responses coming back correctly? Keep an eye on how the SDK affects your app’s performance too. You don’t want to slow things down or drain a user’s battery.

Don’t just test on one device either. Try your app on different phones, operating systems, and even slower Wi-Fi or data connections. Users have all sorts of devices and connection speeds, so it’s a good idea to be ready for all kinds of situations. You might find that something works fine on one phone, but crashes on another.

Also, think about what happens when something goes wrong. What if the server is down or the network connection drops? Make sure your app handles errors without freezing or crashing. A smooth user experience—even when there's a hiccup—makes a big difference.

Before launch, ask a few friends or team members to try out the app too. Fresh eyes can catch problems you might miss. Ask them to give honest feedback—not just about whether the app works, but also how it feels.

Testing may take a bit of time, but it’s worth it. A well-tested Proxy SDK means fewer surprises, better user reviews, and a faster path to success. A little effort now goes a long way after launch!
