Firefox on Android - Appium Testing

2019-12-06

TestingBot has been providing Android Emulators and Real devices for Automated Testing. Most of the time, the default browser for these devices is Chrome.


Today, TestingBot has added the latest Firefox browser to all Android Emulators and Real Android Devices. What's even more: these Firefox browsers can be used with Automated Testing via Appium.

Automated Testing

Thanks to the latest release of GeckoDriver (0.26.0), it is now possible to run your Automated Tests on Firefox.


At TestingBot, we've configured our Emulators and Devices to use this latest version. All you need to do to run Automated tests is add firefox as browserName in your desired capabilities.

Automated Testing Example

Please see the example below on how to run an Automated Test on Firefox and Android.

Live Testing

Next to the Automated Testing offering, we've also added the option to run a manual test with Firefox on Android.
Simply select a device or emulator, choose firefox and we'll connect you with a remote device running the latest Firefox

Assets

TestingBot will offer various assets generated during your Automated Test: a screen recording, screenshots and various log files.
