Adding a Vega device¶
- Vega
Suitest allows you to manage Vega devices over local network. It can also open your apps on target devices to enable seamless test automation.
To control Vega devices, you will need use a SuitestDrive.
Prepare device and gather information¶
During the configuration process Suitest will ask you to fill out the following information:
- Device IP address
We recommend that you take the effort of determining this information as accurately as possible since that will save you from several potential misunderstandings in the future.
Static IP address
To prevent connection failures due to the device IP address changes you should consider configuring your DHCP server to assign static IP address to your device.
Same network: For Suitest to operate the device correctly, the device and the CandyBox (or SuitestDrive) must be connected to the same local network.
Sleep or power-off: Some devices have sleep or auto power-off features which turn the devices off after some period. Please make sure that your devices are set to never sleep to avoid interfering with tests. Consult your devices user manual on how to do so.
Add the device to Suitest¶
Open the Device wizard, select Add physical device, choose Vega from the platform list and then press Next.
Select SuitestDrive and enter device information¶
Device wizard will let you choose the SuitestDrive you want to pair your Vega device with. It will also request a local IP address of the device. Fill in the data and press Next.
Power on¶
Suitest cannot power on your Vega device over network. If you want to have such capability, you can use a smart plug.
Next steps¶
The rest of the process will complete automatically. After this the Vega device will become available in your Suitest account.
Now that you have your Vega device configured, it's time to instrument your app and start testing.
