Automated tests on Jest

Quick start guide to integrate Automated tests on BrowserStack Accessibility Testing with Jest.

Prerequisites

Integrate with Automated tests

Follow these steps to get started with adding Automated tests to your test suite:

The minimum version of browserstack-node-sdk that supports Automated tests is 1.31.22.

Install the latest version of the BrowserStack SDK

Install (or update) the browserstack-node-sdk npm package using the following command.

Terminal
Copy icon Copy

BrowserStack SDK is a very powerful tool which you can use to set the different browser/device combinations and parallelization. For more details, check out the Automate Integration guide.

Make changes to the SDK config file

If you’ve installed the browserstack-node-sdk for the first time, you’ll have to create the following browserstack.yml file. Else, verify that your config file has all the required key-value pairs.

Especially, ensure to add the accessibility flag at the end of the browserstack.yml file.

Create the browserstack.yml file in the root folder of your test suite if it doesn’t exist.

The projectName and buildName config must be static and not change across different runs of the same build. This is a deviation in approach as specified by BrowserStack Automate since Automated tests will automatically identify different build runs.

  • Accessibility testing runs only on Desktops (Mac & Windows) with Chrome 100 & above on Automate.

  • Window handle commands might cause instability to Automated Tests. If you face issues, consider removing window handle commands or contact support.

Run your suite with Automated tests

Prepend browserstack-node-sdk to the existing command that you use to trigger a run as in the following sample and data will automatically start getting sent to Automated tests.

Terminal
Copy icon Copy


You can check the Accessibility report for your build through the Automated tests page.
