I have existing Qualitia licenses. Do I need to pay anything extra to get Mobile automation capabilities?
As long as you are renewing your subscription, all updates/ releases/ fixes are available to you without any extra cost. Qualitia does not have any module/ capability based licensing/ pricing. Not only that, but your existing test cases will be migrated automatically, once you upgrade to the latest version starting from 4.1.
On an average, how much productivity gains can be seen by Qualitia users as compared to writing plain Selenium / Appium scripts?
We measure outcomes for many of our clients who are using Qualitia. Our clients have experienced at least 70% productivity improvement over conventional automation tools and techniques. This is possible, since Qualitia is designed to think like a QA expert.
Should Qualitia product users know about Selenium, Appium? If yes then in what depth they should be aware of?
No need to know any technical information about Selenium or Appium. Qualitia provides the unified experience and hides all technical details from it's users. This way, testers can focus on quality improvement and testing, rather than trying to make the automation work.
How does Qualitia cope with Appium / Selenium upgrades and Android / iOS upgrades?
We constantly test Qualitia against new platform or technology releases. We generally strive to release our product update to support the new version of platform or technology (in case of any breaking changes), within 4 to 8 weeks of their release. The exact duration will depend on the overall impact of the changes.
Are there any tutorials, getting started with Qualitia or something like that to learn Qualitia?
We have rich user documentation along-with getting started guides. These are freely available online for all Qualitia users. We are working on creating training videos for Qualitia.
Does user need to modify the test cases if there is any change in other underlying technology like (Appium / Android Studio) etc?
No change is needed. Qualitia takes care of all such complexities so that there is minimal impact to users.
Does Qualitia support parallel execution?
Qualitia supports unlimited parallel executions, irrespective of number of licenses you subscribe to. You can leverage Qualitia integration with TeamCity, Bamboo, and Jenkins. Qualitia also seamlessly integrates with Selenium Grid.
Does Qualitia support API testing?
Qualitia supports both SOAP as well as REST API testing.
Mobile Application Testing
Do I need the app to be instrumented?
You need to set DEBUG flag while compiling your Android Hybrid apps. This flag is not needed for Native or Web apps on either Android or iOS, neither it is necessary for iOS Hybrid apps.
When Qualitia is planning to have the object spy tool for mobile?
We are not only looking for our own object inspection but also creating a user-friendly record and playback tool. Android record and playback is expected in next few months, followed by iOS record and playback.
What are the Android and iOS versions that are supported?
Android 4.4 and above iOS 9.3 and above.
Do we need Mac to execute iOS test cases?
If you want to execute tests on premise, then you need Mac machine. That is the Apple requirement. You can also leverage our integration with Sauce Labs to execute iOS or Android tests in Sauce Labs cloud environment. You will need Sauce Labs account for this.
How to Find UDID?
In order to get started with application testing with mobile devices using Qualitia, users need to specify the Android or iOS device ID into Configuration Settings.
Identifying UDID of iOS devices:
Each iOS device has a Unique Device Identifier (UDID), that helps automation engines to identify the specific device from the group of devices. The ID is the combination of letters and numbers that is specific to the device.
You can identify UDID from Simulator window or using the terminal.
To find the UDID of iOS device from the Simulator window:
Open the Simulator window.
On the Hardware menu, select Device and then point to Manage Devices.
Select the device in the left pane. Device Information is displayed in the right pane. Value displayed against Identifier is the UDID.
Before getting started with the application testing, you must know how to find package and activity name of the Android app or bundle ID of iOS app that you are going to test using Qualitia.
This information is to be obtained from the application development team. In case you do not get this information from the development team, you can follow the procedure mentioned below to acquire this information.
Reports and Dashboards
Why the Real Time Reporting Portal is not Showing some Suite Executions?
Why the Real-Time Reporting Portal is not showing some suite execution reports?
The following reasons due to which some suite executions are not displayed:
The user might have applied filter options.
The user does not have access to the associated project.
The test suite was executed without selecting the Enable Real-Time Reporting checkbox in the associated execution profile. After the test suite execution, the user has an option to import the locally saved report.
Qualitia server folder did not have sufficient space at the time of suite execution. If the space problem is still displayed in Real Time Reporting portal, remove the redundant reports, refer to Purging Data from the Server Administration Portal.
Qualitia Server was not connected to the system in which the suite was executed. After the test suite execution, the user has an option to import the locally saved report.
If it is an offline suite execution, the user who created the offline package is currently not assigned to the associated project.
The portal does not support test cases executed through HP ALM.
The portal does not show Dry run executions.

Why does my report show Not Executed steps for Conditional Blocks and Error handling flags/actions like Exit Suite?
You must know that the presence of these Not Executed steps in the report is only a visual indicator of progress. It does not impact the reported test case status. To show real-time execution progress against planned test cases for a test suite, the portal displays all the steps for all test cases that are part of a test suite and then it updates status as the execution progresses.
In the case of Conditional Blocks and Error handling flags/actions, it helps to understand which test conditions were met or not met based on the data used in that iteration, and hence these are now displayed in the report. For a Conditional Block, steps which ran as conditions were met, are marked as per their status. The steps where conditions were not met and hence did not run, are shown as Not Executed. In the case of Error Handling flags/actions, the steps that could not be executed as execution flow was changed due to reasons such an Exit Suite action will also be displayed as Not Executed
Why are Filters and Table Column Display Settings getting reset in offline report?
Features such as filters and table column display settings facilitate online analysis of the report, by focusing on required data elements. Saving of these filters and display settings in offline report (HTML file) is not supported in popular browsers. Hence, these settings get reset whenever offline copy of the report is refreshed.
