Configuration of mobile test runs
After you record the tests for mobile applications by using HCL DevOps Test UI (Test UI), you can play back the recorded tests by using Test UI. The test reports help you to analyze the functional and performance issues in the mobile applications developed.
Test UI supports the testing of mobile applications developed for the
following types of mobile operating systems:
- The Android mobile operating system.
- The iOS mobile operating system.
Running mobile tests for Android mobile applications
Before you can use Test UI to play back the recorded tests, you must record the tests for the mobile applications by using Test UI. See Recording mobile tests for Android applications.
By using Test UI, you can play back the recorded mobile test on Android devices or emulators that
are connected to any of the following computers or device clouds:
- Computer that runs Test UI.
- Remote agent computer.
- BitBar Cloud.
- BrowserStack Cloud.
- Perfecto Mobile Cloud.
- pCloudy Cloud.
You can find information about the tasks that you can perform when you want to play back
the recorded tests for Android mobile applications as follows:
- Running mobile tests on an Android device or emulator connected to a computer that runs DevOps Test UI
- Running mobile tests on an Android device or emulator connected to a remote agent computer
- Running mobile tests on Android devices on BitBar Cloud
- Running mobile tests on Android devices on BrowserStack Cloud
- Running mobile tests on Android devices on Perfecto Cloud
- Playing back mobile tests on Android devices on pCloudy Cloud
- Running mobile tests as an AFT suite
- Running mobile tests for Android applications from the command-line
Running mobile tests for iOS mobile applications
Before you can play back the recorded tests, you must record the tests for the mobile applications by using Test UI. See Recording mobile tests for iOS applications.
You can play back the recorded mobile test on iOS devices or simulators
that are connected to any of the following computers or device clouds:
- Computer that runs Test UI.
- Remote agent computer.
- BitBar Cloud.
- BrowserStack Cloud.
- Perfecto Mobile Cloud.
- pCloudy Cloud.
Note: You cannot connect simulators to device
clouds.
You can find information about the tasks that you can perform when you want to play back
the recorded tests for iOS mobile applications as follows:
- Running mobile tests on an iOS device or simulator connected to a computer that runs DevOps Test UI
- Running mobile tests on an iOS device or simulator connected to a remote computer
- Running mobile tests on iOS devices on BitBar Cloud
- Running mobile tests on iOS devices on BrowserStack Cloud
