Prerequisites for Testing Mobile Applications on Android

Before you can test a mobile application (app) on an Android device or on an Android emulator, ensure that the following prerequisites are met:
  • If you have created your own hybrid app by adding a web view to a native mobile app, add the following code to the app to make your app testable with Silk Test Workbench:
    WebView.setWebContentsDebuggingEnabled(true);
    webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
  • Silk Test Workbench does not support showing a live view of the device screen for Android 4.4. Micro Focus recommends using Android 5 or later.
