Testing Android Applications - Tutorial

You can follow this tutorial and create a test for an Android application only if you have the following:

• A Windows computer with TestComplete 15.47 installed and an active license for the TestComplete Mobile module.

• Access to an Android device managed by an Appium server. It can be:

  • The mobile device cloud provided by BitBar. We will use it in this tutorial. We will show how to create a free trial BitBar account and access the mobile devices it provides.

  – or –

  • A private Appium server running on your local computer or on a remote computer in your local network.

    Note: If you do not have a private Appium server, you can consider configuring it. In this case, a Windows or a Mac computer where the server will be running is required. Your TestComplete computer must have network access to that computer. Configuring a private Appium server is beyond this tutorial scope. See Set up Appium Server.

• If you use a local Appium server, place the Orders.apk file to a location where your server can access it, for example, in a shared network location.

Note: No other software, for instance, Java or Android SDK, is required for this tutorial.

We are going to create a trial BitBar account, connect to an Android mobile device in the BitBar device cloud, deploy a tested application to it, create and run a simple test, and analyze the results.
