Connect to the mobile device lab

Before creating and running mobile tests, configure the OpenText Functional Testing for Developers engine settings to connect to Digital Lab.

Note: In some cases, to enable designing and running tests properly, a few libraries need to be added to the app. After you upload an app, Digital Lab attempts to package the app automatically with the libraries needed for testing. For details on when you need to package an app, see App packaging and signing services.
