Automation with SeeTest Cloud

     From my experience with automation execution on Cloud tools, I had done the executions with Perfecto Cloud, Sauce Labs, Browserstack; now am with SeeTest Cloud. In SeeTest Cloud, easily run your Selenium and Appium tests against real iOS, Android & desktop browsers, ensuring that you are testing real user scenarios accurately.

       Start testing mobile and web applications on the cloud. It will support both manual and automation tests. Allows you to easily create automated tests for your mobile application using our large selection of real iOS and Android.

     Here I would like to share what are the capabilities required to execute your automation scripts in SeeTest Cloud for Mobile Native (iOS and Android), Mobile Web (iOS and Android) and Desktop Browsers. Before start setup the capabilities and script execution, you need a account in SeeTest Cloud. For the account, you need to register with SeeTest Cloud (https://cloud.seetest.io/) and get the access key, specify the access key in the set of test capabilities to gain access to remote testing. Once the access key ready, you can set the Desired Capabilities and instantiate the driver for Automation scripts. Following steps helps to get the access key from your registered SeeTest Cloud account,

In the cloud, click on your profile → Get Access Key

For Mobile Native - Android

AndroidDriver driver = null;
DesiredCapabilities dc = new DesiredCapabilities(); 
dc.setCapability("testName", "Android Mobile Native Test Execution"); 
dc.setCapability("accessKey", "your_SeeTest_acess_key");
dc.setCapability("deviceQuery", "@os='android'"); 
dc.setCapability("deviceModel", "device_name"); 
dc.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_VERSION, "device OS_version"); 
dc.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.UDID, "device_UDID"); 
dc.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP, "application_location_in_SeeTest"); 
dc.setCapability(AndroidMobileCapabilityType.APP_PACKAGE, "application_package_name"); 
dc.setCapability(AndroidMobileCapabilityType.APP_ACTIVITY, "application_activity_name"); 
driver = new AndroidDriver<>(new URL("https://cloud.seetest.io/wd/hub"), dc);

For Mobile Native - iOS

IOSDriver driver = null;
DesiredCapabilities dc = new DesiredCapabilities(); 
dc.setCapability("testName", "iOS Mobile Native Test Execution");
dc.setCapability("accessKey", "your_SeeTest_acess_key");
dc.setCapability("deviceQuery", "@os='ios'"); 
dc.setCapability("deviceModel", "device_name"); 
dc.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_VERSION, "device_OS_version"); 
dc.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.UDID, "device_UDID"); 
dc.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP, "application_location_in_SeeTest Cloud"); 
dc.setCapability(IOSMobileCapabilityType.BUNDLE_ID, "Bundle_ID of the application");
driver = new IOSDriver<>(new URL("https://cloud.seetest.io/wd/hub"), dc);

For Mobile Web - Android

AndroidDriver driver = null;
DesiredCapabilities dc = new DesiredCapabilities(); 
dc.setCapability("testName", "Android Mobile Web Test Execution");
dc.setCapability("accessKey", "your_SeeTest_acess_key");
dc.setCapability("deviceQuery", "@os='android'"); 
dc.setCapability("deviceModel", "device_name"); 
dc.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_VERSION, "device_OS_version"); 
dc.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.UDID, "device_UDID"); 
dc.setBrowserName(MobileBrowserType.CHROMIUM);
driver = new AndroidDriver<>(new URL("https://cloud.seetest.io/wd/hub"), dc);

For Mobile Web- iOS

IOSDriver driver = null;
DesiredCapabilities dc = new DesiredCapabilities();
dc.setCapability("testName", "iOS Mobile Web Test Execution");
dc.setCapability("accessKey", "your_SeeTest_acess_key");
dc.setCapability("deviceQuery", "@os='ios'");
dc.setCapability("deviceModel", "device_name");
dc.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_VERSION, "selected_device_OS_version");
dc.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.UDID, "device_UDID");
dc.setBrowserName(MobileBrowserType.SAFARI);
driver = new IOSDriver<>(new URL("https://cloud.seetest.io/wd/hub"), dc);

For Desktop Web

WebDriver driver;
DesiredCapabilities dc = new DesiredCapabilities();
dc.setCapability("testName", "Desktop Web Test Execution");
dc.setCapability("accessKey", "your_SeeTest_acess_key");
dc.setCapability(CapabilityType.PLATFORM, "desktop_OS_name"); 
dc.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_NAME, "name of the browser"); 
dc.setCapability(CapabilityType.VERSION, "browser_version");
driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("https://cloud.seetest.io/wd/hub"), dc);

Now, the capabilities and driver is ready, next you can start writing your automation scripts and execute it on SeeTest Cloud.

make it perfect !
