Supported devices¶
Suitest is a ubiquitous test automation tool that works with many types of devices and platforms. After configuring a device in your Suitest account you will be able to do many interesting things that probably not have been possible before. For instance, you will be able to:
- Control and execute commands on multiple devices at once.
- Schedule a particular action on a group of devices.
- Control local and remote devices with equal ease.
- Test and debug apps on local and remote devices.
Supported device types¶
The current support is as follows:
- Android TV based devices. This includes any device running Android TV 5.0 or later, such as the Amazon Fire TV and many other TVs, set-top boxes and consoles.
- Apple TV 4th and 5th generation devices
- Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Edge browsers
