Executions on Perfecto
Mandatory Settings and Execution Guidelines in Qualitia
You must create execution profiles that are solely used for execution on the Perfecto platform from Qualitia Client or offline package. In those execution profiles, you must define the settings that are mandatory for test suite execution.
Mandatory Execution Guidelines
You must upload mobile native or hybrid applications on Perfecto Cloud before executing test suites. Perfecto has given guidelines to upload the mobile applications on their cloud at the following location:
https://developers.perfectomobile.com/display/PD/Upload+Item+to+RepositoryEnter the Perfecto lab repository path in the first parameter of Mobile.OpenApp action. An example of Perfecto lab repository path is PRIVATE:MyApp.apk.
Mandatory Settings in Associated Execution Profile
In the associated execution profile, do the following in the order listed:
- From the Environment list, select as Cloud.
- From the Cloud Platform list, select Perfecto.
- Select the Edit Additional Capabilities checkbox.
- Select or enter the following values:
- Enter the following as URL
https://testingcloud.perfectomobile.com/nexperience/perfectomobile/wd/hub - Either enter Username and Password, or SecurityToken
- For testing on a mobile application, select enableAppiumBehavior as True.
- For testing on a mobile web application, select enableAppiumBehavior and useAppiumForWeb as True, and AutomationName for Android as Appium and for iOS as XCUITest .
- For testing on an Android hybrid application, select enableAppiumBehavior and useAppiumForHybrid as True.
- For testing on an iOS hybrid application, select enableAppiumBehavior, useAppiumForHybrid, and iOSResign as True.
Additional Recommendations:
In the Execution Parameters tab, select ScreenCaptureMode as Browser.
If you have used ID, Accessibility ID, and Class locator types when adding native mobile app objects in Qualitia, Perfercto Appium integration translates these all locator types to xPath at the time of test case execution.
For more information, refer to the PerfectoMobile documentation.
Viewing Execution Status and Reports in Perfecto's Execution Center
Once you have triggered the offline execution, you can view the status of your ongoing executions in Perfecto's Execution Center. Each test case appears on dashboard as a single grid with execution status against it. The status is updated after each test execution is completed in Perfecto's environment with its status (FAILED / SUCCESS) against it. Select the test case from the list and click Report from top to view recording of your test case.
Qualitia and Perfecto's reports may mismatch if Qualitia test case contains any situation which ends the WebDriver session. This situation may arise due to the use of actions like Mobile.CloseApp, opening multiple WebDriver sessions in a single test case and so forth.
To view the execution report of Qualitia test cases:
- Log on to your Perfecto account.
- From the top right corner, click More > Execution Center.
- In the Executions section, select the test case from the list.
- Click Report
Executing Test Cases Behind Firewall Applications
Few applications are configured to be accessed using private networks. Such applications deny access when they are being accessed from other than local networks and so from Perfecto. Executing test cases on Perfecto for such applications needs special configurations.
Simply download Perfecto Connect client executable that matches your Operating System. You need to execute it on the machine in the private network to allow Perfecto executing tests flawlessly.
For more information on configuration of Perfecto connect, refer to the Perfecto documentation.
To configure perfecto to run test cases for the applications behind firewall:
- Download Perfecto Connect executable depending on your OS.
Unzip the folder and run the file using command line interface along with Cloud URL and Security Token.
For example:perfectoconnect.exe -c <Perfecto_Cloud_URL> -s <Security_token>
- Executing this file will give you the tunnel ID.
- Under Edit Additional capabilities, enter the tunnel ID in tunnelId.
For more information about this, refer to the Perfecto documentation.
