When the image injection feature is enabled during a test session, LambdaTest injects a custom camera module into the mobile app using this sensor instrumentation. This module simulates the behavior of the camera by overriding the Android SDK, allowing you to validate how your mobile app handles camera input. - -### Key Features ---- - -- Works across various Android emulators. -- Enables testing of image capture, barcode, and QR code scanning. -- Integrates smoothly into standard app testing workflows. - -## Supported Camera APIs ---- - -Below given is the list of camera APIs which are supported for image injection feature. Please ensure that your mobile app uses these APIs only to enable image injection. - - - - - -
- | Supported APIs | - |----------------| - | `CameraX` API is used.
📕 For details, please check [CameraX documentation](https://developer.android.com/training/camerax). | - | `Camera` API is used.
📕 For details, please check [Camera documentation](https://developer.android.com/training/camera-deprecated).| - | `Camera2` API is used.
📕 For details, please check [Camera2 documentation](https://developer.android.com/training/camera2).| - | `ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE` is standard intent action that can be sent to have the camera application capture an image and return it.

📕 For details, please check [MediaStore documentation](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/MediaStore).| -
- - - - -## Using Camera Image Injection for Android ---- - -Follow the below steps to automate camera injection testing on Android emulators with Appium: - -### Step 1: Upload an Image ---- -Use the following cURL command to upload an image of your choice to the LambdaTest cloud. Only JPG, JPEG, and PNG formats are supported, with a maximum file size of 10 MB. - -
- -{`curl -u "${ YOUR_LAMBDATEST_USERNAME()}:${ YOUR_LAMBDATEST_ACCESS_KEY()}" -X POST "https://mobile-mgm.lambdatest.com/mfs/v1.0/media/upload" -F "media_file=@"/Users/macuser/Downloads/sampleimage.jpg"" -F "type="image"" -F "custom_id="SampleImage""`} - -
- -The response to the above cURL command will be a JSON object containing a `media_url` in the format `lt://MEDIA123456789123456789`, as shown below. - -```js -{ -"media_url":"lt://MEDIA123456789123456789", -"name":"sampleimage.jpg", -"status":"success", -"custom_id":"SampleImage" -} -``` - -### Step 2: Enable Image injection ---- -You can enable image injection in your mobile app using `appium` capability. Simply add `"enableImageInjection": true` capability in your automation script. Enabling this capability will trigger the sensor instrumentation in your mobile app. Now, add the media URL `"media": "lt://MEDIA123456789123456789"` capability. However, this capability is now optional and can instead be provided via LambdaHook, as described in Step 3. - - - - -
- - {`desired_capabilities = { - "enableImageInjection": true, - "media": "lt://MEDIAf446d4170cd946aa9ec307d10cb679b9", #Add media_url here (optional) - "isRealMobile"=false, - }`} - -
- - - - -
- - {`DesiredCapabilities desiredCapabilities = new DesiredCapabilities(); -desiredCapabilities.setCapability("enableImageInjection", "true"); -desiredCapabilities.setCapability("isRealMobile", false);`} - -
- - - -### Step 3: Inject an Image ---- -Refer to the code snippets below to inject an image. Ensure the image is injected before your mobile app activates the camera, as the camera will only capture the most recently injected image. - - - - - -
- - {`driver.execute_script("lambda-image-injection=media_url") #Add media_url here`} - -
- - - - -
- - {`driver.execute_script("lambda-image-injection=media_url") //Add media_url here`} - -
- - - -:::info - -**Use Case**: This feature allows you to inject multiple images at different points within a single test. Each new image injected using this process will replace the image injected in the previous step. - -::: - -### Step 4: Capture the Desired Image ---- -First, add the logic to inject the uploaded image in your test script. Then, add the logic to tap the camera button in the mobile app. Make sure to inject the image before clicking the camera, as only the most recently injected image will appear on the app screen. - - -> 📕 Check the documentation to [automate camera image injection testing on real devices](/support/docs/camera-image-injection/). - - - diff --git a/sidebars.js b/sidebars.js index 2233078b8..3e601e784 100644 --- a/sidebars.js +++ b/sidebars.js @@ -2541,7 +2541,6 @@ module.exports = { [ "app-automation-app-sim", "virtual-device-flutter-apps", - "camera-image-injection-vd", ], ],
