Emulator An emulator is a software or hardware tool that replicates the hardware and software environment of a specific device or platform. It allows applications to run on a different platform than they were originally intended for, typically to test compatibility and performance. Key Characteristics of Emulators: Hardware Replication : Emulators replicate the hardware architecture of the target device or platform. This includes processors, memory, input/output systems, and other hardware components. Software Environment : Emulators also mimic the software environment, including the operating system and its functionalities. They provide an environment where applications can run as if they were running on the actual device. Realistic Testing : They enable realistic testing of applications across different devices and platforms without requiring physical access to each device. Examples : Android Emulator (for testing Android apps on different devices), iOS Simulator (for testing i...
