Why Integrate Perfecto and Appium?

Perfecto offers instant access to 10,000+ real Android and iOS devices. Appium is the leading open source cross-platform test automation framework for Android and iOS. This includes mobile native, web, and hybrid app test automation. Explore Appium basics >>

Perfecto seamlessly integrates with Appium for iOS and Android. Test automation engineers and developers can create and execute standard Appium scripts in various languages (Java, C#, etc.). And they can execute these scripts against real devices in the cloud (Perfecto) — even across various global locations. It’s simple, reliable, and scalable.

Perfecto ensures security for the enterprise, including:

  • Strict security certifications (SOC 2, PCI, ISO27001, GDPR).
  • Varying network configurations (VPN connections and others).
  • Audit trail for evidence.
  • Test data backup and retention.
  • SLA and 99.9% lab availability.
  • Same-day mobile device/OS support.
  • And more. 

You can also test mobile apps that require backend services or other internal network access through Perfecto Connect. And you can remotely access a cloud device for debugging through a remote device access ability (through virtual USB access).

Find and Fix Bugs Faster Through Advanced Reporting Abilities

Perfecto provides an advanced and unique set of reporting capabilities to reduce noise from your overall test automation cycles. You can also identify the root cause (RCA) of failures and fix issues faster. 

Perfecto Smart Reporting helps you: 

  • Automate classification of test failures by root cause (automated RCA), so you can make better decisions.
  • Get a wide range of rich test result reports, including real device vitals (memory, CPU, logs), HAR files (network files), cross platform visual comparison, videos, screenshots, and accessibility insights.
  • See the success and failure of your pipeline’s health, jobs, and branches in real time on a CI dashboard, so you can optimize them.
  • Monitor all cloud executions across projects and platforms on a live execution dashboard.

How to Get Started

Integrating your existing Appium test code with Perfecto is easy.

You can configure your TestNG/Maven projects from within your IDEs (IntelliJ, Eclipse, etc.). Simply provide your private cloud URL and security token. And then define the desired capabilities for the platforms you want to test against.

Perfecto is also fully integrated with Appium Desktop. This allows you to work on real devices in the Perfecto cloud from the Appium Desktop solution. This means you can inspect objects and create test automation that works.
