  • Publication number: 20140365900
    Abstract: An example device includes one or more processors configured to generate for display, data corresponding to a selectable control, the computing device provides a pre-production web application, the selectable control is displayable in association with output of the pre-production web application, and the selectable control, when selected, causes a computer-readable image encoding a uniform resource identifier (URI) associated with the pre-production web application to be generated, to receive a selection of the selectable control, identify the URI, and generate for display the computer-readable image, where the computer-readable image is displayable to a mobile computing device, use the computer-readable image to obtain the URI, make a request to the pre-production web application using the URI, and display the output, receive, from the mobile computing device, the request, and provide to the mobile computing device, the output, such that the mobile computing device displays the output of the pre-production w
