The Hybrid framework implementation for the user agent
Until now, in this chapter, we have understood the manual process of how user agent manipulation works and how simulation can be used for mobile testing. The following steps will help us understand how to set up a mobile automation framework that can be used for unmonitored execution of mobile web applications without the use of actual devices:
- Identify the various platforms for which the Application Under Test (AUT) needs to be validated.
- Identify the user agent switcher tool that corresponds to the selected browser to be used for testing, and set it up as per the process explained in the previous section.
- Identify the user agent string for all the platforms that you need and set them up in the user agent switcher tool.
- Set up the user agent string repository in an external file, such as an Excel sheet or a Database, that may be periodically updated in order to execute the scripts over newer versions of operating systems and devices.
- Set...
