Is it possible to do android mobile test automation without an .apk file?
I am creating android mobile test automation using a local appium server and I want to be able to test an application that is currently downloaded on the android device. I do not have access to the apk file for this application but the app is already installed, I just need to be able to access it. What would I need to do to create automation without the apk file because TestComplete prompts you to enter the location of where the file is stored?
TestComplete for iOS testing
Hi all, Are there a lot of community members that use TestComplete with Appium to test web applications on iOS on a regular basis? Is that a fairly smooth process for you? It seems like detecting webview content and test responsiveness can be inconsistent at best. I have had a ticket open with the support team for a few months and have made some progress, but have not been able to provide any usable automation to our internal customers yet. Also, the documentation (Set up Appium on macOS for Testing iOS Devices | TestComplete Documentation (smartbear.com)), shows that it only supports Appium 1.22. If you have had success are you using the old version of Appium or have you tried Appium 2.0? There must be a way to optimize this for better performance, but I'm struggling so far. I'll keep working at it and if I come up with any solutions, I'll be sure to share! Thanks for your help, Mike
Mobile - Swipe to an element
Hello! I am trying to find a way how I can scroll in an application until an element is visible. Basically the original issue is that using app.FindElementByXpath of an object errors with "Unable to find an element that matches the specified 'xpath' selector strategy", however, it works when I manually scroll onto the object. On web, I am aware of the ScrollIntoView functionality, but can't find anything similar for android/ios? Thanks in advance!
Unable to connect to mobile devices on TestComplete via Bitbar
Hello , We are trying to run test scenarios on Bitbar using Test Complete. We have set up the API key in TestComplete but when we attempt to connect to a mobile device (ios & android), we're receiving errors. We can connect to devices and perform on tests directly on Bitbar perfectly fine. For IOS: Unable to connect to the remote device with requested capabilities. Appium server error com.testdroid.api.APIException: Failed to submit test run! No privileges to run IOS Framework. For Android: Unable to connect to the remote device with requested capabilities. Appium server error com.testdroid.api.APIException: Failed to submit test run! No privileges to run IOS Framework
TestComplete Git
Who here has any experience with Git? It seems difficult to understand. Is there a great resource from SmartBear on how to use the SmartBear TestComplete 15.52.x Git control panel to upload all of the TestComplete 15 project folder and subfolder and files to the Git repository built by company. Yes, I have the path to that repo. I have the userid and pass to that location too. -todd2
TestComplete Instructor Led Training
Hello. Is there a place preferably online whereby one can attend an instructor led training class on TestComplete advanced topics? Specifically, I want to learn how to apply Python to TestComplete for better control of TestComplete to UI interactivity. I am seeing a high amount of failures currently when trying to work with TestComplete and my given application which is 100 percent web based Chrome. We do not need to cross browser test but parallel tests would be nice to have without BitBar. We want to roll our own grid via TestComplete. Thank you. -todd2
