Why we need to cloud device services for mobile app automation3:12
Learn why cloud device services enable mobile app automation by offloading emulators and simulators from local hardware, reducing memory strain and cost while supporting Appium testing across Android and iOS.
Advantages of using cloud device services2:25
Leverage cloud device services to automate scripts without local emulators or SDKs, run Android and iOS devices in the cloud, and enable Chrome-like network debugging with auto provisioning.
Comparison between popular cloud device providers1:59
Compare popular cloud device providers for app testing, noting device ranges, pricing per device per month or year, and testing limits, with guidance on cost and support differences.
Browserstack cloud device services introduction1:16
Explore BrowserStack cloud device services for automating iOS and Android mobile testing and using Applied to inspect app elements and monitor network traffic.

Find xpath using app live6:17
Learn how to find xpath using app live by inspecting app elements, viewing their xml details, and identifying coordinates to locate and interact with elements during live testing.
Debug network traffic using app live2:12
Enable app live network traffic to capture all calls, view requests and query parameters, and use these insights for manual testing, bug reporting in Jira, and testing across locations.

Writing your first appium test script for android application16:57
Write your first Appium test script for Android using BrowserStack, register and set up a project, upload your app, and run cross-platform automated tests with Java, Python, or Ruby.
Writing your first appium test script for ios application5:17
Write your appium test script for iOS, configuring capabilities and creating tests for an iPhone X. Run the tests and review execution, as you explore integration questions and api-based reporting.
Appium Inspector and Browserstack Integration6:42
Writing script to intract with elements and clicking elements using coordinates8:08
Explore how to set up Appium with BrowserStack, write scripts to interact with elements using coordinates, and perform touch actions to navigate from app launch to sign-up flow.
Running tests in parallel on browserstack3:55
Run tests in parallel on BrowserStack by parameterizing device names and using a class-based test approach, enabling simultaneous Android and iOS runs and delivering combined results.

Logs related Capabilities5:58
Learn to enable and disable BrowserStack log capabilities for actual, image, network, device, EPM, and profiling logs before driver initialization, noting mutual exclusivity between network and profiling logs.
Timeout Related Capabilities4:12
Learn to control idle timeouts in BrowserStack for Appium tests by configuring an explicit idle timeout capability, reducing unnecessary waits and speeding test execution.
Running Appium Tests Behind VPN Using Browserstack Local Capabilities13:29
Geolocation Related Capability2:52
Learn how to run Appium scripts on BrowserStack with geolocation capability to test your app for a specific country, such as Indonesia, by setting device location and geolocation flags.

Upload Application Automatically Using Browserstack Rest API and Curl7:43
Automate uploading your app to BrowserStack using the rest api and curl, with basic authorization, file payload, and custom parameters to always test the latest build and integrate with Jenkins.
Delete Application Automatically Using Browserstack Rest API and Restassured15:30
Automate deleting an application on BrowserStack using the rest API and RestAssured by first retrieving app IDs with the app name, then issuing a delete call.
