Upload an Espresso test suite from filesystem

Upload an Espresso test suite from filesystem to test on BrowserStack App Automate.

Once your app is uploaded, you also need to upload the test suite containing your Espresso test cases to BrowserStack servers. It’s easy to upload an Espresso test suite (.apk file) from your local filesystem or CI/CD server to BrowserStack using the REST API.

Here is an example cURL request to upload an Espresso test suite:

curl -u "YOUR_USERNAME:YOUR_ACCESS_KEY" \
-X POST "https://api-cloud.browserstack.com/app-automate/espresso/v2/test-suite" \
-F "file=@/path/to/app/file/application-debug-test.apk"

A sample response to the above API request is shown below:

{
    "test_url":"bs://j3c874f21852ba57957a3fdc33f47514288c4ba4"
}

Note the value of test_url in the API response (bs://j3c874f2185.... in the above example). This value will be used later to specify the test suite for your Espresso test execution.

  1. Test suite upload will take a few seconds to about a minute depending on the size of your test suite. Do not interrupt the cURL command until you get the response back.
  2. You can also delete a test suite that was previously uploaded to BrowserStack using REST API. By default, BrowserStack deletes the uploaded test suite 30 days after the date of upload.
