Hey folks 👋 

LambdaTest real device cloud is now live with an Intelligent UI Inspector to help developers, and testers overcome the challenges of inspecting app elements. 🔧 

The new Intelligent UI Inspector simplifies interacting with app elements and eliminates the need for repetitive inspector opening and closing. 

Additionally, it streamlines the creation of reliable custom XPath, addresses the complexity of hybrid app inspection, and saves time by facilitating effortless app relaunches. Moreover, it enhances the user experience by offering an intuitive interface catering to various user preferences.

For more details, please refer to our product update - Introducing Intelligent UI Inspector for Real Device Cloud.

LambdaTest App Automation has just shipped new features that make it easier than ever to build, test, and deploy quality mobile apps. 🚀 

Take a look 👇 

📌 New Lambda Hook to help you differentiate between multiple test cases within a single Appium session. This feature aims to improve debugging capabilities, making it easier to identify which test cases may be causing errors or taking longer to execute.

📌 See highlighted elements in both live and saved videos when using the findElement method for Appium testing. This can help you to easily identify which elements your script is interacting with during test execution and to review saved videos to understand how your tests performed and interacted with the elements.

To use this feature, your organization must have instrumentation enabled. You also need to add the instrumented: true capability to your test script.

📌 Live video support for web automation on real devices that provides real-time video feedback as your web automation scripts execute on real Android and iOS devices. This can help you to identify issues more easily, improve the quality of your testing, and validate the user experience directly.
