Maestro Cloud Testing on Real iOS and Android Devices

Maestro is the open-source mobile UI testing framework from mobile.dev, used for native iOS, Android, Flutter and React Native automation testing. TestingBot runs the same Maestro flows you run locally on real iPhones, iPads and Android devices in the cloud. Swap maestro cloud for testingbot maestro and your existing flows just work.

Yes. The CLI signature is identical (app + flows + flags), so any script or CI job that calls Maestro Cloud can call TestingBot instead. Same YAML flows, same arguments, same exit codes.

TestingBot supports every recent Maestro release, and you can pin a specific Maestro server version per-test using the --maestro-version flag. Newer versions are typically available within days of release.

Yes. Plans on TestingBot include up to 100 parallel Maestro sessions on real devices, simulators and emulators. Use --include-tags / --exclude-tags to shard intelligently and the dashboard will roll the results back together.

All three. TestingBot runs Maestro flows on real iPhones, iPads, Galaxy and Pixel devices, plus iOS Simulators on Apple Silicon and Android Emulators with Google Play APIs. Pick per-flow with the --real-device flag.

Live in the TestingBot dashboard with video streaming, step-by-step screenshots and Maestro logs. Programmatically via our REST API. Or piped into Jenkins, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI and any CI that consumes JSON.

Install our secure tunnel and your Maestro flows can reach staging APIs, internal services and localhost without any inbound firewall rules.

TestingBot is GDPR-compliant with EU data residency, ISO 27001 aligned and STAR Level 1 certified. Devices are factory-reset between sessions, app uploads are encrypted, and SAML SSO and audit logs are available on enterprise plans.

Maestro is an open-source mobile UI testing framework built by mobile.dev. It lets you write declarative YAML flows that drive native iOS and Android apps, plus Flutter and React Native, with built-in retries, auto-waiting and screenshots. Teams use Maestro for end-to-end testing, smoke tests and regression coverage. TestingBot runs the same Maestro flows on real iPhones, iPads, Galaxy and Pixel devices, simulators and emulators in the cloud, with parallel execution and CI/CD integration.

Yes, the Maestro CLI and framework are free. Mobile.dev releases Maestro under the Apache 2.0 license, so you can install it, write flows and run them locally at no cost. The cost question for teams is usually how to run Maestro at scale across real devices and parallel workers, which is what TestingBot provides on flat plans at a third of the cost of Maestro Cloud.

Maestro is open source. The framework is maintained by mobile.dev on GitHub under the Apache 2.0 license, with a public roadmap and active community. TestingBot complements the open-source framework with a managed device cloud for real iPhones, iPads and Android devices, parallel runs and detailed reporting.

Maestro supports native iOS apps, native Android apps, Flutter and React Native, and works on real devices, iOS Simulators and Android Emulators. The same YAML flow runs across platforms with minor selector differences. TestingBot exposes all of these targets through the standard Maestro CLI, so you can pick a real iPhone, an iOS Simulator on Apple Silicon, an Android Emulator with Google Play APIs or a real Galaxy or Pixel device per flow.

Maestro Cloud (run by Mobile Dev Inc. at maestro.dev) is the official managed cloud for Maestro flows. TestingBot is the leading independent Maestro Cloud alternative, with an identical CLI, real iPhones, iPads, Galaxy and Pixel devices alongside iOS Simulators and Apple Silicon Android Emulators, roughly a third of the cost per run on flat plans with no per-test surprises, plus parallel execution, geolocation testing in 20+ countries, secure tunnel access for staging environments, real-time video streaming and CI/CD integrations out of the box.

DeviceCloud is a Maestro-focused cloud that runs flows on parallel iOS Simulators and Android Emulators only, with no real-device support, on subscription plans where extra runs are billed per test. TestingBot offers a true real device cloud, with real iPhones, iPads, Galaxy and Pixel devices alongside the same iOS Simulators and Android Emulators, on flat plans with predictable pricing, real-time video and logs, geolocation testing in 20+ countries, device locale testing in 20+ locales, and Apple Silicon performance for iOS Simulators. Both expose a Maestro-compatible CLI, so migrating between them is a one-line change.
