Mobile Setup Workflow
If your required mobile testing boundaries are not fully configured, Robonito will display an active warning: “Mobile Setup Not Complete”. This warning indicates that the local mobile testing architecture (Appium or SDKs) is currently missing essential system components.
To proceed with mobile test recording, click Configure Environment to begin the auto-installation process.
Environment Setup Overview
The Mobile Environment setup wizard allows Robonito to download and configure:
- Android SDK Toolchains
- Node.js Runtime Layers
- Appium Server Modules
This setup pipeline instantly prepares your host system for complex mobile automation emulation.
Important: Robonito manages these specific SDKs within independent, isolated folders. This automated setup will not affect or overwrite your machine's pre-existing global native environment variables.
Required Environment Components
The following software components must be successfully installed on your machine for mobile testing to execute correctly.
(Robonito will display a red MISSING status next to any tool that has not been securely configured.)
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| Java Development Kit (JDK) | The baseline Java runtime required for compiling Android build tools. |
| Android Command Tools | The core Android SDK Manager utilities. |
| Platform Tools (ADB) | Provides the Android Debug Bridge pipeline to communicate with virtual devices. |
| Android Emulator | An automated Virtual Device exclusively used for test rendering. |
| Node.js Runtime | An isolated JavaScript engine explicitly used for operating the Appium server. |
| Appium Server | The primary automation server engine used to translate interaction tests. |
| UiAutomator2 Driver | Appium's core Android automation accessibility driver. |
How to Install Components
Follow these exact steps to fetch all structural requirements:
- Launch: Open the main Robonito application interface.
- Navigate: Proceed to the Mobile Setup dashboard locally.
- Execute: Click the Install All button located directly at the top of the interface.
Robonito will autonomously sequence, download, and install all missing architectural components in strict isolation.
