Organize tests

You can logically group multiple XCUI test executions under a single project. This helps you easily access all related test executions on the App Automate dashboard and also while fetching test results using REST API.

In order to group XCUI test executions under a given project, you need to pass the project parameter in the REST API request to start your test execution. You can set its value as shown in the table below.

REST API endpoint :

POST /app-automate/xcuitest/v2/build
Parameter Description Values
project A unique identifier to logically group multiple test executions together String
Only letters (A-Z, a-z), digits (0-9), periods (.), colons (:), hiphens (-), square brackets ([]), forward slashes (/), asperands (@), ampersands (&), single quotes (‘), and underscores (_) are allowed.
Default: Untitled Project
buildTag A custom tag for your builds String
Only letters (A-Z, a-z), digits (0-9), periods (.), colons (:), hiphens (-), square brackets ([]), forward slashes (/), asperands (@), ampersands (&), single quotes (‘), and underscores (_) are allowed. Any other characters are ignored. Any other characters are ignored.

Example cURL requests :

Both the test executions shown below specify the same value for the project parameter. Accordingly, they will be grouped together under the same project Dashboard-v2

curl -u "YOUR_USERNAME:YOUR_ACCESS_KEY" \
-X POST "https://api-cloud.browserstack.com/app-automate/xcuitest/v2/build" \
-d '{"project" : "Dashboard-v2", "devices": ["iPhone 8 Plus-11.0"], "app": "bs://f5L3azt9pLzE995f49376eb1fa3c284dc321f8d", "testSuite": "bs://6eb1fa3c284ddbe9971b2d1aee0d52943b9c081"}' \
-H "Content-Type: application/json"


curl -u "YOUR_USERNAME:YOUR_ACCESS_KEY" \
-X POST "https://api-cloud.browserstack.com/app-automate/xcuitest/v2/build" \
-d '{"project" : "Dashboard-v2", "devices": ["iPhone 8 Plus-11.0"], "app": "bs://f5L3azt9pLzE995f49376eb1fa3c284dc321f8d", "testSuite": "bs://aee0d52943dbe9971b2d1a2943be43b9c081"}' \
-H "Content-Type: application/json"

Adding build tags

You can add a custom build tag to your builds using the buildTag capability. You can filter your builds according to the assigned tag on the App Automate dashboard.

Example cURL requests :

The following code shows how the buildTag capability is used to add a build tag:

curl -u "YOUR_USERNAME:YOUR_ACCESS_KEY" \
-X POST "https://api-cloud.browserstack.com/app-automate/xcuitest/v2/build" \
-d '{"project" : "Dashboard-v2",  "devices": ["Samsung Galaxy S10-9.0"], "app": "bs:/12474f21852ba5233fdc33f47514288c4ba4", "testSuite": "bs://e994db8333e32a5863938666c3c3491e1231", "networkLogs": "false", "disableAnimations": "true", "deviceLogs": "true", "video": "true", "project": "Sanity", "buildTag": "Laser Tag"}' \
-H "Content-Type: application/json"
