Well, the kind of testing to be done will definitely depend on the type of application you are testing. It'd help if you could tell us what help you need so that we can chip in our inputs.

I am new to this mobile apps and manually test them in my organization but i would like to test deeply things for performance, load etc. I would love to learn new tools, technique for good mobile applications testing. I have seen all other organizations work on tools but we don't use any. I like to automate my tasks.

I believe most of the security testing would be manual one with use of special tools. I'm not familiar with automation tools used for mobile apps testing. Perhaps @#-Link-Snipped-# and @#-Link-Snipped-# can give you inputs.

Few of the automation tools for mobile that are gaining popularity off late and I have evaluated are:
- Robitium
- SeeTest
- MonkeyTalk
- M-eux (QTP add-in)

Let me know if you have any specific query for any of these, that I can answer.

Robotium should be the one you can start with..
Meanwhile, I haven't work on Performance / Security for Mobile applications.

Ok.
I have learned QTP so have knowledge of Vb scripting. Are UFT & M-eux same?

With robotium, i can automate android only? I have to test iphone app also..

UFT is the name of QTP 11.5 which is actually combination of two application QTP 11.0 (Functional Testing) and HP's tool to give the facility of doing service bases testing. Again, this is licensed, and even if you want to upgrade from QTP 11, you need to pay extra money for the same.

M-eux is a paid add-in for QTP for QTP (can be used with QTP 11 as well).
For doing iPhone app testing you can use SeeTest as well.
