How do you store all your testing devices?
1 points by allr 4282 days ago
Hi there, we're in the process of getting multiple testing devices (phones/tablets) for iOS and Android development. I don't want to stack them on the corner of a table and was wondering if any of you have a good idea to store them in a clean way? I was thinking of using a wall shelf (something like http://www.ikea.com/ca/en/catalog/products/S99903646/) and use some kind of stands to keep them well organized.

Any ideas are welcome :)

something like this would be very nice : http://www.petelepage.com/blog/2014/07/devlab/

Your shelf might do the trick though. Do you want to make automated tests or just to have devices lying around for your devs ?

If these devices will only be used for dev-testing, think about including chargers. Nothing is worse than having to wait half an hour that a device recharge in order to solve a critical bug.

If you want to create a functional test lab, keep in mind that it should be easy to access to the cables and to plug/unplug devices.
