Integrate accessibility test suite with Fastlane

Integrate your accessibility test suite with Fastlane using the BrowserStack Fastlane plugin.

Fastlane automates beta deployments and releases for iOS and Android apps. It handles tasks such as generating screenshots, managing code signing, and releasing applications. The BrowserStack Fastlane plugin lets you upload your app to BrowserStack directly through Fastlane. After uploading the app, you can run automated or manual accessibility tests on the app using BrowserStack real devices.

BrowserStack provides this integration as a standalone Fastlane plugin. You must explicitly install it in your Fastlane project.

Install the BrowserStack Fastlane plugin

1. Run the following command to add the BrowserStack Fastlane plugin to your Fastlane project:

    fastlane add_plugin browserstack
   

2. Configure the BrowserStack Fastlane plugin by adding the following action to your Fastfile to upload your app:

    upload_to_browserstack_app_automate(
        browserstack_username: ENV["BROWSERSTACK_USERNAME"],
        browserstack_access_key: ENV["BROWSERSTACK_ACCESS_KEY"],
        file_path: "<path_to_your_apk_or_ipa_file>",
        custom_id: "<custom_id_name>"
    )
   

After you have successfully uploaded the app, you can use the BROWSERSTACK_APP_ID environment variable in subsequent Fastlane steps or test workflows as needed.
