DeviceID Property

Applies to TestComplete 15.47, last modified on January 20, 2023
The information below concerns legacy mobile tests that work with mobile devices connected to the local computer. For new mobile tests, we recommend using the newer cloud-compatible approach.

Description

Returns the unique identifier of a mobile device.

For iOS devices, DeviceID is the unique device identifier (UDID).

For Android devices, the DeviceID value is the same as in the output of the adb devices command:

  • for physical Android devices – the device serial number as specified in Settings | About phone (or About tablet) | Status | Serial Number.

  • for Android emulators – the string in the format emulator-<port> where <port> is the emulator’s console port (5554 by default).

  • for virtual machines running Android-x86 – the IP and port of the virtual machine.
