   Gennymotion Review

   Genymotion Desktop relies on the use of Oracle VM VirtualBox in the background to virtualize Android operating systems. If you do not already have Oracle VM VirtualBox installed, you will be asked to do so prior to installing Genymotion.

   The Genymotion emulator uses x86 architecture virtualization and OpenGL hardware acceleration which makes running your apps more efficient. It works by creating a virtual machine through VirtualBox to deliver an Android emulator with support for hardware sensors such as GPS, accelerometer, and battery.

   🏁 Competitors: Android Studio

• Need free Online Mac OS through browser

  Browserstack - 30 minute trail available AWS Device farm - 1000 minutes trail with aws free tier You can also go DIY with setting up playwright and configuring it to emulate safari browsers. Source: 10 months ago

• CI/CD system using a real device

  You can still use it for building, just not testing. You can probably automate tests using The AWS Device Farm or similar system, but it may be easier to just install each build on your own device and run the tests manually. Source: about 1 year ago

• Using Selenium WebDriver 4.0 BiDirectional API

  Something I found last minute: Unfortunately this is not supported by AWS Device Farm and it's not clear when it will ever be. This means that this is only supported locally, or for any remote/grid servers that have built-in support for it. I happen to run into the error DevTools is not supported by the Remote Server. If anyone has any solutions or workarounds for this, I'm all ears! - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• I'm starting a new position as a DevOps release engineer and i'm looking for some tips

  Don’t muck with automating simulators, it’s a PITA: we used Https://aws.amazon.com/device-farm/ and it was ok. This was pretty ok: Https://bitrise.io As much as I hate Microsoft, https://appcenter.ms was workable, but required the most calories and was slow. Source: over 1 year ago

• What is an easy way to test a mac os game build if I don't own mac pc?

  Also https://aws.amazon.com/device-farm/ helps testing on devices if you've got it built. Source: over 1 year ago
