Manual Testing

Now that you have created a project and selected a build to test, you may want to get right into it and perform some manual testing on your app.

To start a Manual test session:

  1. Click on the ‘Manual’ icon on the Project Dashboard

    A device selection screen now pops up. You may search for a device on the ‘Device selection screen’ based on device name, platform version, screen size, hardware configuration (e.g. Memory and CPU), node name, node IP, etc.

  2. Select the device you wish to test on by clicking on the ‘Select’ button under the device

    Note: RobusTest provides you a way to select multiple devices in parallel to perform your manual testing. To know more go to the page on Multi-device testing

  3. Once you have selected the device, click on the ‘Play’ button on the top right corner.

    The device screen now comes up and you can see that your app is installed on the device.
