Mobile test generation

Overview

Fore supports native mobile application testing by analyzing APK files. Instead of providing a website URL, you provide an application binary. The AI agent then launches the app on a cloud-hosted mobile device and executes your instructions within the native app environment.


Managing mobile assets (APKs)

Before generating a mobile test, the application file must be available in your project. There are two ways to handle this:

  • Pre-uploading via Assets: Navigate to Test Data → Assets and upload your .apk file there.
  • Direct upload during creation: Upload a new APK directly from the Select APK dropdown in the test creation window.

Creating a mobile test

  1. In the Create a test window, switch the toggle from Website to Mobile App.
  2. Click the Select APK dropdown and choose the relevant file.
  3. Write your test steps in plain English.
  4. Click Create Test.

Implementation & results

Once generated, mobile tests look and behave similarly to web tests — with a full step-by-step breakdown and corresponding screenshots captured from the mobile device.

The AI analyzes the mobile UI hierarchy to identify buttons, input fields, and labels, just as it would on a website. Each step is verified against the mobile screen's state to confirm the action was completed successfully.
