danger

Note: Android version must be 4.1 and above, and the latest version of chrome.

     Start testing by either starting chrome manually or by using the "Launch" command:​

  •  Use the SeeTestAutomation - Launch command to open the Chrome  browser on Web mode, with the following URL format:

    chrome: HTTP://<URL of the website to be displayed>

          for example: http://www.espn.com.

**

In order to view the chrome web dump of your web page you can: 

  •  Use object spy mode to get the Web HTML DOM properties of elements on the screen.

    danger

    Note: By default (regardless if you chose to start chrome in instrumented/non-instrumented mode), SeeTest will display instrumented dump for chrome as it provides a richer dump with a wider range of properties that are needed for mobile testing. However, if you still wish to see the non-instrumented properties, you can achieve this by a right click on the dump and choose Non-instrumented dump. (for further information, Go to SeeTestAutomation - Non-Instrumented Elements In Chrome and Safari ) Or from the code environment, you can use android.native.nonInstrumented property with SeeTestAutomation - SetProperty command in order to tell SeeTest to use the non-instrumented dump.

    info

    Starting version 11.5, Seetest supports retrieving web dump of Shadow DOM in web pages opened in Chrome. This includes showing web elements in Object Spy & running commands on such elements in the test script.
