Hi,

 

Just put your .apk/.ipa file(s) to some common resource (share) and indicate the path in the relevant TestedApp item.

The only potential problem that I can imagine (just because of lack of knowledge about mobile internals specifics) is that there might be problems with mobile application install from the network location. But this is a minor problem as you can always make a local copy of the installation file (check aqFile object for that) and do install from local folder.

    Hi Alex,

     

    After I copy both Android and iOS files on to the server where all my co-workers have access. Now everyone in my team can run the mobile scripts from their local machine. 

     

    Thanks
