• Use secured connection. If you want TruClient to automatically detect whether the server is secure or not, use the default setting, Automatic. If you must use a secure connection, select True.

• Server URL:Port. The IP address and port of your TruClient server. The default ports are 8080 for non-secure servers, and 8443 for secure servers. For example, 123.45.67.89:8080.

• Authentication Type: Select the authentication method for connecting to the UFT Mobile server.

  • Basic authentication. Enter the credentials with which to connect to the UFT Mobile server (User name/Password).

  • Access key authentication. To use access key authorization, enter the access key to connect to the UFT Mobile server. TruClient uses Oauth2 to get authorization from the UFT Mobile server. For details on generating an execution key, see Access key management.

• User name/Password. The credentials with which to connect to the UFT Mobile lab (available in TruClient version 2020 and earlier).

The UFT Mobile login password and access key values are encrypted and displayed as asterisks so that their actual values cannot be seen.

Note:

• If you are using a secure connection and your certificate is not signed by a trusted authority, you need to add a server exception to each script. For details, see Add server exceptions.

• In VuGen, click Check Connection to validate the settings.

The data metrics to collect during replay: CPU on device, Free memory on device, and Consumed memory on device. You can also enable Device logs, for generating logs for each of the devices under test. The device log data is generated by Logcat for Android and Syslog for iOS.

Initial Replay: Whether to restart or install your applications before the first replay.

Iteration. What to do with your applications before and after each iteration: Restart, Install, or Delete.

Reinstalling apps ensures their compatibility with the current version of UFT Mobile. This option may not be available if you are using Amazon as a source lab.

For example, if your test runs multiple iterations, and you only want to install the apps for the first iteration, but not on subsequent iterations, configure the settings as follows:

Initial Replay section:
Select Enable from the drop-down list for the Restart application and Install application options.

Iteration section:
Clear the Install application before execution option. Note that this option is only effective if the Simulate a new user for each iteration option is enabled in VuGen's Replay Runtime settings.

Typing Simulation Mode. How to simulate key strokes, as defined in the Type action for web elements.

• DOM Events. (default) Simulates typing at the web page level, without relying on the device keyboard.
• Device Events. Triggers a device level operation for each key stroke, more accurately simulating a user's action.

Lets you enable network virtualization, and select a predefined or user-defined network profile.

Beginning with UFT Mobile version 2.20, TruClient integration uses the NV 9.12 predefined network profiles. If your script uses profiles from previous versions, they may fail.

For details, see the Network Virtualization help.

Allows you to customize transactions names by adding a suffix to help you identify them after a test run. For details, see Insert transactions.

The suffix can be one or more of the following:

• OS type
• Device ID or name
• Application identifier or name

Run on start. Runs the entire configuration flow in the TruClient UFT Mobile tab when the TruClient browser opens. When disabled (default), TruClient automatically connects with the UFT Mobile server, but does not execute any of the configuration steps.

If you disable this option, you can execute the flow in the following ways:

• When you click Replay , TruClient automatically executes the flow before running the steps.
• If you manually run steps using the Play … Step options in the right-click menu, you need to execute the flow using the Execute configuration flow button before running the steps.
