General
This section covers general questions about BrowserStack Maestro.
Why does BrowserStack use an older Maestro version?
BrowserStack prioritizes unblocking users quickly, regardless of the Maestro version they use. While the bundled version may be older, we provide compatibility support to ensure newer Maestro versions work seamlessly.
Due to our custom implementation for Maestro on iOS real devices, each upgrade requires additional validation to maintain a stable, reliable, and high-quality iOS real-device testing experience. If a newer version is required due to specific errors, please reach out to us with specific details and we will ensure you are unblocked as soon as possible.
Troubleshoot
This section covers common errors you may encounter while using BrowserStack Maestro, along with their causes and solutions.
Files not found
Cause: Your .zip file was not structured correctly with a single parent folder.
Solution: Re-zip your files inside one main folder and upload the new suite.
Build fails with 'asset not found'
Cause: The app_url or test_suite_url in your cURL command is incorrect or has expired.
Solution: Verify you have copied the correct and most recent URLs from your uploads. Re-upload if necessary.
Build runs but no tests are executed
Cause: You did not use the execute parameter, and there are no flow files at the root of your parent folder.
Solution: Either move your primary flow files to the root or use the execute parameter to specify their paths.
