  2. Clear the APK path from the associated parameter of Mobile.OpenApp Action. 

Settings in the Associated Execution Profile:

Creating a Real Device Project

In order to automate testing on Sauce Labs Real Device, you must create a project on TestObject. When creating a project, you provide information about the type of application to test (Web or Mobile app) and the device settings you want to use in your tests. After creating a project, you will get a testobject_api_key (for example: 1234567890123456789012345678901234567890). You will have to add this key in testobject.properties against to.testobject_api_key property.

For more information about creating the project for Sauce Labs Real Device testing, refer to the Sauce Labs documentation.

After logging to TestObject, click Data Center located at the top-right corner, and select the Time Zone to USE West 1.
