Overview#
The BrowserStack API allows you to automate web and mobile application testing by providing instant access to multiple desktop and mobile browsers. With this API, you can manage your tests, integrate with CI/CD pipelines, and get real-time results from your testing environment. Whether you're looking to streamline your development workflow, or automate repetitive testing tasks, BrowserStack's API via Pipedream provides the flexibility to tailor your testing processes and feedback loops for efficiency and thorough coverage.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
browserstack: {
type: "app",
app: "browserstack",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api-cloud.browserstack.com/app-automate/plan.json`,
auth: {
username: `${this.browserstack.$auth.user_name}`,
password: `${this.browserstack.$auth.access_key}`,

Example Use Cases#
Automated Cross-Browser Testing Workflow: Trigger an automated testing workflow whenever code is pushed to your repository. Use the BrowserStack API to run your suite of tests across various browsers and devices, then receive the test results in Slack or via email. This saves time and ensures your application performs well across all user platforms before deployment.
Scheduled Regression Testing: Set a Pipedream cron job to periodically initiate regression tests on BrowserStack. After the tests are complete, the results can be logged into a Google Sheet for tracking and trend analysis. This regular health check can catch issues early and maintain the integrity of your application over time.
Dynamic Resource Allocation for Testing: Use the BrowserStack API in a Pipedream workflow to dynamically allocate testing resources based on the development cycle. For instance, ramp up testing environments before a major release and scale down during off-peak periods. Integrate with Jira to create or update issues based on test outcomes, optimizing your resource usage and bug tracking.
Authentication#
BrowserStack uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your BrowserStack account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to BrowserStack APIs in both code and no-code steps.
You can get your user_name and access_key in your BrowserStack App Automate Dashboard.
