What is BrowserStack App Automate with Espresso?

Optimise your testing process by running automation tests on BrowserStack’s App Automate infrastructure.

BrowserStack’s App Automate Espresso lets you test your native and hybrid apps on a variety of Android mobile and tablet devices. Devices you access are all real devices housed in our data centers.

Run tests on 2000+ real Android devices

App Automate gives you instant access to 2000+ real Android devices, OS versions and form factors in the cloud, thereby reducing the cost of building and managing an in-house lab. You can test your app under real-world conditions and identify issues that might not appear in emulators or simulators.

Speed up test runs

With BrowserStack’s Espresso grid, you can leverage the power of parallelization to run hundreds of tests in parallel across devices. This helps reduce your test suite execution time to minutes.

Test apps even from internal dev environments

Testing your apps while hosted in your development environment is a best practice. With App Automate, you can run tests on your apps even when they are hosted on private, internal networks. App Automate uses a secure and encrypted tunnel using the local binary to test your apps in dev environments. The local binary uses secure WebSockets (WSS) to ensure the security and privacy of your data.

Debug apps with ease

BrowserStack’s Espresso grid allows you to seamlessly collaborate and debug with a range of logging tools for unlimited users within your organization. Use these logs to debug your failed test cases and fix them with ease.

Test apps in real-world user conditions

BrowserStack lets you test the behaviour of your app on different devices under different network conditions. App Automate offers several presets and also lets you define your own custom network conditions to check your app’s behaviour. You can also change the network conditions mid-way during the test run, just like in real world where the end-user’s network varies.
