Author Your First Mobile Browser Test

In this guide, we'll walk you through how you can author your mobile browser tests using KaneAI

Steps to Author Your Mobile Browser Test

Step 1: From the KaneAI dashboard, click on Author Browser Test.

Step 2: A modal would appear from the side. Select Mobile from the sidebar.

Step 3: Now, choose your preferred OS (Android or iOS), browser, device and the OS version.

Step 4: You can also toggle on advanced settings such as network throttling or auto-login through Google from the Advanced Settings option.

Step 5: Once done, click on Author Test.

Step 6: Now tell KaneAI what you want to author using natural language without the need for coding or scripting knowledge required. KaneAI translates your instructions into executable test steps automatically.

As you add each instruction, KaneAI queues them in real-time without waiting for completion. This allows you to build comprehensive test flows quickly and efficiently. Once you've outlined all your test steps, click Save in the top-right header to finalize your automated test case.

Your test is saved as Ready when every step has run and passed, which is also when automation code is generated. If some steps were never run, or a step errored, it saves as Unverified or Faulty instead and you can finish it later. See Save states.

Step 7: Now, select your Project and the folder where you want to save your test cases. The Test Name and Description will be generated automatically, but you can also edit them. Select your test's Type and Status, as well as the necessary tags that will allow you to search for it later.

Step 8: To execute your test, click on the Execute test case button and you will be redirected to the HyperExecute dashboard where your tests will be executed.
