Playwright Browser Testing on Real Android Devices

To make your mobile browser automation even more productive, we are pleased to announce support for the Playwright framework for Android automation testing.

With this, you can now perform Playwright web testing on over 100+ real Android devices from a wide range of OEMs, including Samsung, Xiaomi, Google, and more. This way, you can avoid the pain point of setting up in-house Android device labs.

Note: Currently, support for Playwright Android testing is in the Beta phase.

The TestMu AI platform provides comprehensive device coverage, effortless integration, and vast testing capabilities, making it a great fit for Playwright Android automation. You can ensure the quality and browser compatibility of Android web apps by testing them on a real device cloud of real Android smartphones, thereby cutting testing time and effort.

Track your Test Progress using Build Inactivity Time

Earlier, when you ran a build on TestMu AI, all tests were combined into a single build, posing a challenge to distinguish the tests conducted at particular intervals. Therefore, we have now introduced Build Inactivity Time, also known as the Build Splitting logic feature, which assists you in effectively organizing your tests.

Build Inactivity Time is a feature that helps you organize tests effectively. It enables you to monitor tests performed at regular intervals. You can use the Build Splitting feature to specify a time interval, after which the system will wait for the specified amount of time before marking the build as completed. After this time period, all fresh builds you run will be generated as new builds.

Note: Check our guide to set up your Build Inactivity Time

In addition, we released some other features for web automation as well. Take a look at them:

• New Lambda Hooks to interpret test execution results. It includes skipped, ignored, unknown, and error.
• The Live Interaction feature is now supported on macOS Monterey and macOS Ventura.

Local Testing with TestMu AI Tunnel Docker Extension

To jazz up your local testing experience, we are introducing the TestMu AI Tunnel Docker Extension. This extension enables you to perform real-time cross browser testing of locally hosted websites and web applications across 3000+ browser environments.

With this extension, you no longer have to manually initiate the tunnel via the command-line interface (CLI). Instead, you can launch the TestMu AI Tunnel in a single click directly from within the Docker Desktop.

Some of the benefits you can leverage with TestMu AI Tunnel Docker Extension are:

• Wide range of access to real browsers, devices, and operating systems.
• Hassle-free setup in a single click without requiring it to launch from the CLI.
