This section includes instructions for creating, editing,
and performing tests for native, web, and hybrid applications on mobile
devices.
Creating mobile tests
You can record a test from an Android or iOS application
on a mobile device, a simulator on which the mobile client is installed,
or from the test workbench.
Editing Mobile tests
With the test editor, you
can view and customize a mobile test imported in the test workbench or uploaded from
a mobile device or simulator after recording.
Running mobile tests
After generating a test from a recording, you can run the
test on multiple mobile devices and simulators on which the mobile test client is installed.
Tests created for native or hybrid applications must be run on the
Android mobile test client if
recorded on Android platform, and on the iOS mobile test client if recorded
on iOS platform. But there is no such restriction for tests of IBM® Worklight® hybrid applications, as they
can be recorded on Android and played back on iOS platform, or recorded
on iOS and played back on Android mobile test client. If you test
web applications, the IBM Rational® Test Workbench Mobile
Web Recorder is used
to record and run your tests on Android and iOS mobile test client. Note that all
tests can be run from the test workbench.
Evaluating results
To check whether or not the mobile test ran successfully,
you can open the test report. You can also view each recorded functional
action in the report.
