Android Emulators have software buttons and a hardware keyboard. In a regular Android emulator the device buttons are software buttons displayed on the right size of the emulator. For the Android emulators with different skins (e.g Google Nexus 7 HD, LG Nexus 4, Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Samsung Galaxy S3, etc) the device buttons are also software buttons that are overplayed on top of the skin. For instance, if you hover the mouse around the edges of any of our Android emulators with an specified skin, a hover icon will appear and you should be able to find whatever buttons actually exist on the device that the skinned emulator is trying to emulate (e.g power button along the top, volume buttons along the edge, back/home buttons right below the screen, etc).
If you wish to use the native Android testing framework (Espresso), please refer to the following documentation for real device testing or emulator and simulator testing .
Currently the only browser that can be automated in our Android emulators is the stock browser (i.e Chrome).
The mobile real device cloud is a new feature that Sauce Labs is currently working on. For more information about this feature please directly email your account representative or email (sales@saucelabs.com).
Appium 1.6.0 will default to using `automationName: XCUITest` for iOS 10.x tests, and `automationName: UIAutomation` for iOS 9.x tests. However, if you specify `automationName: XCUITest` in the device capabilities for the test, you can get XCUITest for iOS 9.x tests.
