Starting today our paying customers can run their tests on Samsung Galaxy Tab emulators running on a Linux node. These nodes are optimised to run the emulator with enough RAM and CPU. As always, you will have access to all test results together with screenshots and a video of the test. In the following example you will see a simple Ruby script using Webdriver to test on a Galaxy Tab in our cloud: ```ruby require "rubygems" gem "selenium-client" gem "selenium-webdriver" require "selenium-webdriver" require "selenium/client" caps = { :browserName => "galaxytab", :platform => "ANDROID" } client = Selenium::WebDriver::Remote::Http::Default.new client.timeout = 480 driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for( :remote, :url => "http://key:secret@hub.testingbot.com:4444/wd/hub", :http_client => client, :desired_capabilities => caps) driver.navigate.to "http://www.google.com" element = driver.find_element(:name, 'q') element.send_keys "Hello WebDriver!" element.submit puts driver.title driver.quit ``` By modifying the browserName in the example above to "android", you can also run your test on our [Android Ice Cream Sandwich Phone emulator](https://testingbot.com/blog/2012/01/16/mobile-testing-with-selenium-and-android-ice-cream-sandwich). More information is available in our [app automation documentation](https://testingbot.com/support/app-automate). In the meantime we are working on supporting more mobile devices in our cloud, so stay tuned for further updates. To see a full list of browsers/devices/OS versions we support, please consult the [TestingBot browser page](https://testingbot.com/support/web-automate/browsers).
