To alleviate the obstacles that enterprises confront with digital transformation, the industry is turning to citizen coders. Using sophisticated low-code application platforms, citizen developers are creating products and workflows that deliver corporate value (LCAPs). However, these tools and routines must still be put to the test. Citizen coders do not have time to manually test and will not create standard automated testing suites.

In order to provide the best experience to your app users it’s a great idea to check the memory usage of your app.
ADB (Android Debug Bridge) provides an easy way to fetch a memory usage profile. You can execute ‘adb shell dumpsys meminfo’ to get the whole dump.

I guess you’d rather automate the checks.
