Steps represent individually recorded interactions or assertions that you want to execute in your test. To define a step, click Start Recording and interact with the device as you would normally, or create a step manually by clicking Assertions or Special Actions.
To start recording and adding steps, select a device to launch a mobile app test from the dropdown menu and click Launch Device.
Select Show only available devices. Available devices load faster to see the most available devices for shorter testing wait times.
Click the green Device Connection Notification button in the Launch a device to start recording modal to enable notifications for when your device is ready and when your device is going to timeout because of inactivity.
Once you click Start Recording, Datadog automatically records any interactions you have with your device and displays them in the step list on the left.
To stop recording, click Stop Recording.
In addition to automatically creating steps by interacting directly with your device, you can manually create steps (using assertions and special actions). You can also update steps by clicking into a previously recorded step or reorder steps by dragging them up and down the step list.
Assertions allow you to validate the content displayed (or not displayed) within a particular section of your test flow.
To create a step, select an assertion type:
Create this assertion step to have your mobile app test select a page element and check if it contains a specific value.
Create this assertion step to have your mobile app test confirm that the text you specified in the Value
field is present on the current page being recorded.
Create this assertion step to have your mobile app test confirm that the text you specified in the Value
field is not present on the current page being recorded.
In addition to automatically recording steps based on your device interactions, you can also manually create steps by clicking Special Actions.
Interacting with elements with a double tap on your mobile application records a step.
This action allows you to extract the value of an element and save it as a variable.
Add a name to the step and enter a deep link URI.
This action allows you to restart your application. This action does not reinstall the application but instead closes and then launches the application again.
Add a name to the step and select Portrait or Landscape mode.
Mobile app tests automatically scroll to the elements that need to be interacted with. In most cases, you do not need to add a scroll step manually. Use the scroll step when you need to trigger an additional interaction, such as an infinite scroll.
Specify the number of pixels you want the mobile app test to scroll vertically and horizontally.
By default, the Scroll step scrolls through the entire page. If you need to scroll on a specific element (for example, a specific <div>
), click Starting Element and select an element you want the mobile app test to scroll on.
This action allows you to scroll to a specific element horizontally or vertically.
Interacting with elements with a tap on your mobile application records a step.
This action allows you to enable or disable Wi-Fi within your test to monitor how your application performs with or without internet access.
Interacting with a text input field on your mobile application, adding a name, and setting a value records a step.
To see all available variables on manually added steps, type {{
in the input field.
To use a variable on automatically recorded steps, add a step name and specify the variable value to input the variable value while recording.
If you know that a page or page element takes more than 60 seconds to load, you can add a wait step with a max value of 300 seconds.
By default, mobile app tests wait for a page to be fully loaded before performing a step or the next step with a timeout of 60 seconds. This additional time is systematically added to every run of your mobile app test’s recording.
Interacting with the Back button below the mobile application records a step. Available on Android only.
For more information about additional configuration in test steps, see Advanced Options for Mobile App Test Steps.
You can run mobile app tests within other mobile app tests to reuse existing workflows up to two levels of nesting.
To use an existing mobile app test as a subtest, click Subtest, select a mobile app test from the dropdown menu, and click Add Subtest.
In order to override variables from subtests in parent tests, ensure the variables created at the parent test level have the same names as the variables present in the subtest. A variable always uses the value that was first assigned to it.
For more information about advanced options for subtests, see Advanced Options for Mobile App Test Steps.
If it does not make sense for you to run your subtest independently, you can pause it. The test continues to be called as part of your parent test, and is not executed individually. For more information, see Reusing Browser Test Journeys Across Your Test Suite.
When adding subtests to your mobile tests, click the steps dropdown to show a preview of each step within the subtest:
After adding the subtest to your mobile test, click the subtest to view another preview of each step within the subtest:
If your subtest contains variables, they are inherited by the test you import them into. To override these variables, create a variable in your parent test with the name as the variables within your subtest.
Instead of manually reordering new steps by dragging and dropping individual steps, you can set a cursor on a test step at a particular stage in your recording and insert additional steps.
