Manage mobile applications
Before we can record a test from an Android or iOS application, the application must be instrumented, imported into the test workbench, and installed on a mobile device. Android applications can be instrumented by uploading the application from a mobile device to the test workbench, or by importing the application into the test workbench. iOS applications are instrumented by running a script on a Macintosh computer.
We can view the mobile applications available for testing, as well as information about each application in the Mobile and Web UI Applications editor, as shown below:
