Testim Integration

Testim provides an automated testing platform to create stable tests using AI-powered capabilities, along with tools that facilitate scaling quality across your software development process.

Integrating LambdaTest with Testim lets you run Testim automated tests on LambdaTest cloud-based grid across 3000+ real browsers and OS.

Prerequisites

Create an account on Testim.
Create a LambdaTest account. You can sign up for free.
Get your LambdaTest Username and Access Key.

Setting Up the Grid

Shown below are the steps to set up your Grid on Testim.

Click on your profile icon > Grids button.
Click on Add New Grid. Then, select LambdaTest as your Grid Type and click on Next button.
To configure the Grid:
- Enter the Grid name.
- Update your Host and Port number.
- Enter your LambdaTest Username and Access Key and click on Add button.

Recording the Tests

Shown below are the steps to record your tests on Testim.

Click on New Test > Start Recording.
Enter your app URL and click on Create Test.
It will start recording the tests. Once your testing is completed, stop the recording and save your tests.

Configuring the Capabilities

Include the capabilities you wish to use in a .json file and ensure this file is located in the same directory as your Testim runner.

{
  "resolution": "1280x800",
  "browserName": "chrome",
  "version": "latest"
}

Running the Testim Tests on LambdaTest

To execute the tests, check:

If the Testim CLI is not already installed on your system, use the entire command provided by the Testim CLI or dashboard.

For example:

npm i -g @testim/testim-cli && testim --token "2jWxWxXcmJRON0PA73YZWt92fFGU76cd" --project "GTJL28fMHad" --grid "LAMBDA-TEST" --test-id "2u8QnIm454" --selenium-caps-file "local.json"

If the Testim CLI is already installed, you can run a simpler command that includes your Testim token, project ID, grid, test ID, and the name of your Selenium capabilities file.

For example:

testim --token "2jWxWxXcmJRON0PA73YZWt92fFGU76cd" --project "GTJL28fMHad" --grid "LAMBDA-TEST" --test-id "2u8QnIm454" --selenium-caps-file "local.json"

To view your test results, navigate to the LambdaTest Web Automation Dashboard.

Note: To explore additional configuration options, you can execute testim --help in PowerShell or bash, which will display further customizations available for writing and executing your test cases.
