Using the Execute Feature in Revyl

The Execute feature in Revyl allows you to create and manage end-to-end tests directly from the test editor page. Here’s a guide on how to use this feature effectively:

​
Starting and Stopping Device

  1. Start Device: To begin testing, you need to start a cloud device. This can be done by clicking the “Start Device” button in the test editor. This action initializes a virtual device where tests can be executed.
  1. Stop Device: Once testing is complete, or if you need to halt the testing process for any reason, you can stop the cloud device by clicking the “Stop Device” button. This helps in managing resources and costs effectively.

​
Creating Test Steps

  • Types of Steps: You can create various types of steps in your test, such as clicking buttons, entering text, or navigating through the application. Each step can be defined using simple commands or by recording actions directly on the cloud device.
