Interact With Android and iOS Devices in Real-Time 

You can now interact with real Android and iOS devices in real-time during web automation tests. This means you can inspect UI elements, check device behavior, and troubleshoot any issues instantly, without waiting for the test to complete.

Control Bluetooth Settings During Test Sessions

You now have the ability to turn Bluetooth on or off on real Android and iOS devices during your test sessions. This feature is supported for both manual and automated testing. So, it’s easier than ever to validate Bluetooth-dependent features within your test flow.

For example,

enableBluetooth: true 

Set Custom GPS Coordinates for Mobile Test Automation

You can now set custom GPS coordinates during your tests for Espresso, XCUITest, and Flutter. This makes it simple to simulate different locations and test location-based scenarios.

For example,

"location": {"lat": "-50","long": "150.028333"}

You can now integrate your Firebase App Distribution account directly with LambdaTest. It allows you to instantly push mobile apps to real Android and iOS devices in the cloud—no need to download and re-upload builds.

With this update, testing beta builds, bug fixes, or new features becomes much faster and more efficient. Simply link your Firebase project, and your mobile app is ready for testing on real devices within LambdaTest.

You can also easily share access to these mobile apps with your teammates, ensuring everyone is testing from the same source.

For more details, check out our documentation on testing mobile apps installed via Firebase.

You can now use VoiceOver on real iOS devices to manually test the accessibility of your mobile apps.

This means you can check how well your digital experience works for people who rely on screen readers—especially those with visual impairments. 

VoiceOver reads out loud what's on the screen, helping users navigate and interact with your content without needing to see it.

Change Application Under Test While Editing Mobile Test Cases

KaneAI now allows you to update or change the application under test while editing a mobile test case—without impacting the test creation process. 

This means you can switch between different app versions or configurations on the fly, ensuring your test cases stay relevant across multiple builds. 

Google Account Login Support for Android Native App Authoring

Creating test cases for Google-integrated apps just got easier. KaneAI now supports logging into a Google account on Android for native app authoring. You can leverage Google Play Store authentication to sign in without requiring Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). 

Debug Web Automated Tests With Network and Console Logs

Gain deeper insights into your web automation test runs with new logging capabilities. You can now capture and configure both network logs (requests, responses, API interactions) and console logs (JavaScript errors, browser outputs). 

These logs provide critical debugging data, helping testers analyze failures, optimize test performance, and ensure test stability. All logs are accessible post-execution for detailed review.

Run Web Tests With Chrome Options Support

For web tests, we have added Chrome Options in KaneAI that lets you fine-tune the testing environment to meet the needs of automated tests. It will help you control browser behavior before starting a test session.

Replace URL for Test Runs Across Different Environments 

You can now run the same test cases across multiple environments (e.g., staging, production) without modifying test scripts. With Dynamic URL Replacement, test runs can seamlessly adapt to different environments.

Use Smart Implicit Waits for Managing Network Requests

You can now use smart implicit waits in KaneAI to optimize your test execution. It eliminates the need for adding explicit waits and cuts short your test execution time.

Run KaneAI Tests With LambdaTest Tunnel

You can select a tunnel while executing tests on HyperExecute, both via UI and API. This enhancement allows testing on locally hosted applications directly through KaneAI on HyperExecute.

We’ve added self-signed certificate support in real-time desktop browser testing. This means you can test your locally hosted websites and web applications—whether they’re in internal, pre-prod, or secure environments—without any hassle.

To enhance our platform and focus on the most widely used device versions, iOS 12 devices will no longer be available on LambdaTest Real Devices Cloud starting February 26th. 

Additionally, we are planning to deprecate iOS 13 devices in the near future. 

We understand the importance of a smooth transition, so we will provide at least two months' notice before their deprecations.
