Overview

Launch and run live manual test sessions across web, mobile, and TV platforms.

Interactive Testing

Use this page to launch and run live manual test sessions across web, mobile, and TV platforms.

Interactive Testing sessions open in a separate browser window or application provided by Mozark's session infrastructure.

The Testing Portal handles configuration and session tracking.

The live device view runs in that separate window.

Web Testing

Test websites and web applications in real browsers running on real operating systems.

Launching a Web Session

Navigate to Interactive → Web in the sidebar.

The configuration screen uses four selection columns.

Complete them from left to right.

Each column becomes active only after the previous one is filled.

  1. Operating System Select the OS family, such as Windows or macOS.

    Then select a specific version, such as Windows 11, Windows 10, or macOS Sonoma.

    Options shown in gray are temporarily unavailable.

  2. Browser Select the browser.

    Available options include Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari.

    Safari availability depends on the selected OS.

    Options with no available versions appear disabled.

  3. Browser Version Select the specific browser version.

    Newer versions appear first.

    Unavailable versions appear grayed out.

  4. Resolution Select the screen resolution for the session, such as 1920×1080.

    Available resolutions depend on the selected browser and OS.

  5. Launch Session Click Launch Session in the top-right corner.

    The portal contacts the session service, allocates a remote machine, and redirects you to the live session.

    If all slots are occupied, the portal shows an error toast.

Configuration Auto-Selection

When you open the Web selection page, the portal automatically preselects the first available option in each column.

You can launch immediately with the default configuration.

Change values only when you need a specific setup.

Mobile Testing

Test native Android and iOS applications on real device configurations.

Navigate to Interactive → Mobile.

The selection screen works like Web testing, but uses a device-oriented layout.

  1. Select Platform Choose iOS or Android.

  2. Select Device Brand Review the available manufacturers for the selected platform.

  3. Select Device Model Choose from the available models for that brand.

    Each model card shows the device name and relevant specifications.

  4. Launch Session Click Launch to start the live device session.

TV Testing

Test connected TV and OTT applications on real TV device configurations.

Navigate to Interactive → TV.

The selection screen mirrors the mobile layout.

Select the TV brand and model, then launch the session.

TV sessions use a dedicated routing path within Mozark's infrastructure.

What happens during a session

Once launched, the live session opens in the Mozark session runner in a separate window or tab.

Within the runner, you can:

  • Interact with the device or browser normally.

  • Take screenshots that stay linked to the session.

  • File bugs directly from the session runner toolbar.

  • End the session when testing is complete.

Stream panel actions

Interactions with the stream panel are translated into real device actions.

Action toolbar

The toolbar above the video stream contains session controls.

  • Screenshot captures and downloads a full-resolution screenshot of the current screen.

  • Start Recording and Stop Recording begin or end session video recording.

  • Home, Back, and Menu send the corresponding hardware button press to the device.

  • End Session cleanly terminates the session and releases the device back to the available pool.

Recordings are saved automatically and appear in the session's Downloads section after the session ends.

Ending a session

To end a session, click End Session in the toolbar or close the browser tab.

The platform marks the session as complete.

It then uploads recordings, logs, and screenshots automatically.

You can access them later from the Session Summary screen.

If a session stays idle longer than the configured timeout, the platform ends it automatically and releases the device.

The default idle timeout is typically 10 minutes.

The portal automatically saves the session recording, screenshots, and filed bugs.

You can review them later from the Sessions list or the Session Details page.
