Get started with parallel testing

Parallel testing on BrowserStack enables you to test at scale with the Flutter integration tests automation framework. Parallel testing enables you to reduce the overall test execution times, resulting in improved build times and faster releases.

For example, if your Flutter integration tests takes 30 minutes to execute sequentially on a single device, you can test concurrently on multiple devices and still limit the build time to around 30 minutes.

Test concurrently on multiple devices

It’s very easy to run your Flutter integration tests concurrently on multiple iOS devices. This helps achieve increased device coverage and testing velocity. Specify a list of supported iOS devices to set the devices parameter in the build REST API request to start your test execution. A new test build starts the execution of your tests simultaneously on each of the specified devices.

Example API request for to run your Flutter integration test on multiple devices:

In the above example, the test-suite is executed on iPhone 15 with iOS version 17 and iPhone 13 with iOS version 17 devices in parallel. However, within each device, all the test cases execute sequentially. This blocks 2 parallel tests licenses in your App Automate subscription plan.
