Is you Mobile app data base is encrypted? How to check on Non-Rooted devices?

Typically this feature will be validated on Security related applications like (BYOD Enterprise related applications, Emails...etc).

We always needs a rooted device to check wheather the saved files or the data base is encrypted or not. If you don't have a Rooted android device how you are going to validate this?
It's big challenge to the QA folks who involved in this kind of applications.

Yap!!! It's very easy to validate without having a Rooted device. There are 2 ways to achieve this.
1. Make your app in Debug mode.
2. Take the backup of your device or your application and validate it.
