Distributed testing of wireless networks

One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform actions comprising:

• communicating with devices through respective non-cellular communication interfaces of the devices, wherein the devices are configured to communicate wirelessly through a cellular communication network, the devices being located in multiple geographic regions;
• commanding the devices, via non-cellular communication through respective debug interfaces of the devices, to execute a consumer application that is available for installation and use on the devices, wherein the consumer application relies at least in part on communications through the cellular communication network;
• receiving data from the devices via non-cellular communication through the respective debug interfaces of the devices, wherein at least part of the data indicates a response time of the consumer application, wherein the response time of the consumer application includes a time indicative of communications through the cellular communication network;
• recording response times to indicate an operational status of the cellular communication network in the multiple geographic regions;
• and
• determining, based at least in part on first historical response time of the response times corresponding to a first device of the devices and second historical response time of the response times corresponding to a second device of the devices, that operation of the cellular communication network is impaired starting in a first region of the multiple geographic regions associated with the first device.

A system, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• non-transitory computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform actions comprising:
• communicating with multiple devices through respective wired communication interfaces of the devices, wherein the multiple devices are configured to communicate wirelessly through a cellular communication network, the multiple devices being located in multiple geographic regions;
• commanding the multiple devices, through respective debug interfaces of the multiple devices, to execute an application that relies at least in part on communications through the cellular communication network;
• receiving data from the multiple devices through the respective wired communication interfaces and the respective debug interfaces of the multiple devices, wherein at least part of the data relates to execution of the application on the multiple devices via communications through the cellular communication network;
• evaluating the data to determine an operational status of the cellular communication network in the multiple geographic regions;
• and
• determining, based at least in part on comparing first historical status data of the data corresponding to a first device of the multiple devices relative to second historical status data of the data corresponding to a second device of the multiple devices, that operation of the cellular communication network is impaired in a first region of the multiple geographic regions associated with the first device.
