Current beta limitations for mobile testing, including device support and performance considerations.
Mobile Testing is in beta. The following limitations apply and will be addressed in upcoming releases.
Current limitations
- iOS real device testing requires macOS or a cloud provider (no Linux support)
- Biometric authentication (Face ID, fingerprint) cannot be automated
- Physical sensor simulation (accelerometer, gyroscope) is not supported
- Mobile network condition simulation is limited to preset profiles
- Screenshots on high-DPI devices may differ slightly from baseline
Performance
Real device tests take 2-4x longer than desktop tests due to device boot time and slower execution. Use emulators for fast feedback and real devices for final validation.
