How to use Device Farm to test an Android app?<\/strong><\/h1>\nThe answer is in three\u00a0simple steps:<\/p>\n
Step 1) Sign in to the Console<\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"SignIn\"](\"\/blog\/wp-ttn-blog\/uploads\/2016\/04\/SignIn.png\")
<\/p>\n
\nStep 2) Create a Project<\/strong><\/h3>\nClick this button, type your Project name & choose Create Project.<\/p>\n
![\"CreateProject\"](\"\/blog\/wp-ttn-blog\/uploads\/2016\/04\/CreateProject.png\")
<\/h4>\nStep 3) Upload the build and Start a Run<\/h3>\n
After creating a project, go for Create a new run<\/strong>. Here you can run your set of tests, just you need to give an .apk file & your test scripts.<\/p>\ni) On Choose application page<\/strong>, under native application option, Upload<\/strong> an .apk file. After success upload, you can edit the Run name.<\/p>\nGo for Next step<\/strong><\/p>\nii) On the Configure test page<\/strong>, choose Appium Java TestNG<\/strong> as test suite and Upload<\/strong> your dependency-zip<\/strong> file. (to know: how to create dependency\u00a0file, refer this\u00a0blog How to provide your TestsScripts & Dependencies to AWS Device Farm<\/a>)<\/p>\nGo for Next step<\/strong><\/p>\niii) On Select Device page<\/strong>, choose Top Devices<\/strong> to select the device pool, and then choose Next step. You can choose Curated pools option as well, if you have already selected the devices from the device collection.<\/p>\niv) On the Specify device state page, you can do any of the following:<\/p>\n
– To provide additional data while running your tests
\n– To install an additional app(another .apk file) which you’ll require as supporting app for one of your test,
\n– To specify whether Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, or NFC will be enabled during the run,
\n– You can give the coordinates of device latitude and longitude for the run,
\n– You can choose the locale also.<\/p>\n
v) Now reconfirm your settings & choose Start run<\/strong>.<\/p>\nOnce the test cases will complete then you’ll be able to view the Run’s Results.<\/h3>\n
![\"Result-Page\"](\"\/blog\/wp-ttn-blog\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Result-Page.png\")
<\/p>\n
After completing the test-run, just click on your run, then you’ll see that your test-cases have executed on all those devices which you selected from device-pool.<\/p>\n
On Test-Run detail page, there is another tab i.e. ‘Screenshots<\/strong>‘, which will display a list of all screenshots captured during your test & for capturing the screenshots during the test, you need to mention a small code in your test-script. & Your answer is here:<\/p>\nHow to take Screenshots in Native & Web Application<\/h3>\n
[java]
\npublic boolean captureScreenshot(final String name) {
\nString directory = System.getProperty("appium.screenshots.dir", System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir", ""));
\nFile screenshot = ((TakesScreenshot) driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE);
\nreturn screenshot.renameTo(new File(screenshotDirectory, String.format("%s.png", name)));
\n}
