Flank supports CLI flags for each YAML parameter. The CLI flags are useful to selectively override YAML file values. Pass the --help
flag to see the full documentation. For example: flank android run --help
CLI flags work well with environment variables. You can override a value like this:
flank android run --local-result-dir=$APP_NAME
app, test, and xctestrun-file support ~
, environment variables, and globs (*, **) when resolving paths
Run test_runner/flank.ios.yml

## Enable video recording during the test. Enabled by default, use --no-record-video to disable.
# record-video: true
## The max time this test execution can run before it is cancelled (default: 15m).
## It does not include any time necessary to prepare and clean up the target device.
## The maximum possible testing time is 30m on physical devices and 60m on virtual devices.
## The TIMEOUT units can be h, m, or s. If no unit is given, seconds are assumed.
# timeout: 30m
## Invoke a test asynchronously without waiting for test results.
# async: false
## The history name for your test results (an arbitrary string label; default: the application's label from the APK manifest).
## All tests which use the same history name will have their results grouped together in the Firebase console in a time-ordered test history list.

test: ./src/test/kotlin/ftl/fixtures/tmp/EarlGreyExample.zip
## The path to an .xctestrun file that will override any .xctestrun file contained in the --test package.
## Because the .xctestrun file contains environment variables along with test methods to run and/or ignore,
## this can be useful for customizing or sharding test suites. The given path should be in the local filesystem.
## Note: this path should usually be pointing to the xctestrun file within the derived data folder

Here's an example flank.yml. Note that coverage
and coverageFilePath
must be set when using orchestrator with coverage.
coverageFile
is not used. Orchestrator will generate one coverage file per test. coverageFilePath
must be a directory, not a file.
gcloud:
app: ./app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk
test: ./app/build/outputs/apk/androidTest/debug/app-debug-androidTest.apk
environment-variables:
coverage: true
coverageFilePath: /sdcard/
clearPackageData: true
directories-to-pull:
- /sdcard/
# use a named results dir that's used by the gradle task
results-dir: coverage_ec
flank:
disableSharding: true
files-to-download:
- .*/sdcard/[^/]+\.ec$
- Build the app with coverage:
./gradlew -Pcoverage build
- Run flank
flank android run
- Generate the report
./gradlew -Pcoverage firebaseJacoco
- Open the report in
./build/reports/jacoco/firebaseJacoco/html/index.html
Download Flank from GitHub releases.
Stable. Get the latest stable version number and replace the XXX
with the version number.
wget --quiet https://github.com/TestArmada/flank/releases/download/vXXX/flank.jar -O ./flank.jar

In CI, it may be useful to generate the file via a shell script:
cat << 'EOF' > ./flank.yml
gcloud:
app: ../../test_app/apks/app-debug.apk
test: ../../test_app/apks/app-debug-androidTest.apk
EOF
Fladle is a Gradle plugin for Flank that provides DSL configuration and task based execution.
Run flank auth login
. Flank will save the credential to ~/.flank
. Google account authentication allows each person
to have a unique non-shared credential. A service account is still recommended for CI.
Follow the test lab docs to create a service account.
- Save the credential to
$HOME/.config/gcloud/application_default_credentials.json
or setGOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS
when using a custom path. - Set the project id in flank.yml or set the
GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT
environment variable.
For continuous integration, base64 encode the credential as GCLOUD_KEY
. Then write the file using a shell script. Note that gcloud CLI does not need to be installed. Flank works without any dependency on gcloud CLI.
Encode JSON locally.
base64 -i "$HOME/.config/gcloud/application_default_credentials.json" | pbcopy
Then in CI decode the JSON.
GCLOUD_DIR="$HOME/.config/gcloud/"
mkdir -p "$GCLOUD_DIR"
echo "$GCLOUD_KEY" | base64 --decode > "$GCLOUD_DIR/application_default_credentials.json"
flank.yml is compatible with the gcloud CLI.
gcloud firebase test android run flank.yml:gcloud
gcloud alpha firebase test ios run flank.ios.yml:gcloud
NOTE: You will need to activate gcloud's service account for the above commands to work.
Use the doctor command to check for errors in the YAML.
flank firebase test android doctor
flank firebase test ios doctor
Flank supports printing the current version.
$ flank -v
v3.0-SNAPSHOT
You can consume Flank via maven. See the maven repo for all supported versions.
repositories {
maven(url = "https://dl.bintray.com/flank/maven")
}
dependencies {
compile("flank:flank:flank_snapshot")
}
Access Not Configured. Cloud Tool Results API has not been used in project 764086051850 before or it is disabled.
This error means authentication hasn't been setup properly. See Authenticate with a service account
in this readme.
How do I use Flank without typing long commands?
Add Flank's bash helper folder to your $PATH environment variable. This will allow you to call the shell scripts in that helper folder from anywhere.
With the flank shell script, you can use flank
instead of java -jar flank.jar
. Examples:
flank android run
flank ios run
With the update_flank.sh shell script, you can rebuild flank.jar
.
Symbol is declared in module 'java.xml' which does not export package 'com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.dom'
Make sure you're using JDK 8 to compile Flank.
Test run failed to complete. Expected 786 tests, received 660
Try setting use-orchestrator: false
. Parameterized tests are not compatible with orchestrator. Flank uses orchestrator by default on Android.
