How to test your web applications on mobile?

I don't have money to buy mobile phones, iPhone, etc, but I do want to make开发者_运维知识库 my web applications available to mobile devices. Are there some software to stimulate these devices, or what should I do?

BlackBerry Iphone and Android, you can use these simulators and emulators for testing.

Sure, there are emulators you can use. For instance, you could use have a look here for some device images from Microsoft http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=3d6f581e-c093-4b15-ab0c-a2ce5bffdb47&displaylang=en You can test on various screen sizes.

Also an interesting site is http://www.testiphone.com

My first testing platform is Firefox with his extensions with help of mobiready. You could use Openwave emulator (it is difficult find direct link) and Nokia SDK 40 Series. Althought this is a old and crapy software. You could use windows mobile emulator too.

depending on your scope & budget, deviceanywhere might be an option? i've got no experience with them myself, but I know a number of suppliers of ours (I work for a telco in europe) use their subscription-based test center on the web.

the product that might suit your needs would be 'test center' and there's a specific 'web developer' package that you could choose.
