This document demonstrates how to set up a mobile grid for running automated tests on connected Android devices in 5 minutes. It shows how to programmatically connect devices, launch Appium nodes, run tests in distributed and parallel formats, feed test data into Allure reports, and briefly discusses the code, rake file, spec helper, and spec example. It acknowledges challenges like random disconnects and lack of documentation but provides contact information for support.

1. Mobile Grid Setup
In 5 Minutes!
Its important because…

2. What I’ll demo…
• Getting connected devices programmatically.
• Launching Appium nodes programmatically.
• Running tests distributed. * rake android[dist]
• Running tests in parallel. * rake android[parallel]
• Feeding critical test data into Allure.
• Lets briefly look at the code…

3. Setup Methods

4. Rake File

5. Spec Helper

6. Spec Example

7. Wunderlist Mobile Grid

9. That is great & all but reporting is key!

10. Challenges
• Random adb disconnects.
• Random wifi disconnects.
• Wonky devices.
• Finding documentation.
• Finding solid examples.
