You are developing a mobile app or a web app, you run it locally and you want to test in the mobile (android/ios) or other browser (like Safari) but for example you don’t have a Mac.. What to do?
You can use Amazon device farm to test in a real IOS mobile or you can use lambdatest.com to test in a safari browser
First you have to expose the local dev server to the web with a local tunnel, You can do this with a npm package (You need to have Node.js installed)
Steps
1- Install Npm LocalTunnel Package
npm install -g localtunnel2- Open local webserver with in a port
Example for Angular or Ionic App in Port 8100
Angular:
ng serve --port 8100Ionic:
ionic serve --port 81003- Open the tunnel executing
lt --port 81004- Grab the url they give you (in the console)
5- Open a web browser with that url
6- Now go to Amazon Device Farm
7- Create a device and open safari
You have also other alternatives like for example LambdaTest https://app.lambdatest.com/ , you have 6 sessions free per day.
