Launch iTunes.
-
Click
and select your device:
-
On the Summary tab, click Serial Number. It will be switched to UDID:
2. Register your device for testing

-
On the Member Center page, click Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles, and then click Devices > All.
-
Click the
button in the upper-right corner. -

Connect Your Device to TestComplete
Connect your iOS device to the TestComplete computer via a USB cable.
If the device shows a dialog asking whether you trust this computer, tap Trust.
In addition, we recommend that you configure your device as follows:
-
On your iOS device, go to Settings > General.
-
Tap Auto-Lock.
-
Select Never.
-
Go to Settings > DISPLAY & Brightness.
-
Move the brightness slider to the minimum value.
This will prevent the device from locking the screen during the test run and reduce battery consumption of the connected device.
To make sure TestComplete “sees” the connected device, switch to the Object Browser. You should see the Device("your_device_name") object under the Mobile object.
On the next step, we will prepare the sample Orders application for testing.
