Upload test-suites using public URL

Once your app is uploaded, you also need to upload the test-suite containing your XCUI test cases to BrowserStack servers. Its easy to upload an XCUI test-suite (.zip file) from a public URL to BrowserStack using the REST API. This approach is useful when the XCUI test-suite is hosted on a remote server (e.g. S3 bucket) and its downloadable via a publicly accessible URL.

Here is an example cURL request to upload an XCUI test-suite using a public URL :

curl -u "YOUR_USERNAME:YOUR_ACCESS_KEY" \
-X POST "https://api-cloud.browserstack.com/app-automate/xcuitest/v2/test-suite" \
-F "url=https://www.browserstack.com/app-automate/sample-apps/ios/BrowserStack-SampleXCUITest.zip"

A sample response to the above API request is shown below :

{
    "test_url":"bs://f7c874f21852ba57957a3fdc33f47514288c4ba4"
}

Please note the value of test_url in the API response (bs://f7c874f21852.... in the above example). This value will be used later to specify the test-suite for your XCUI test execution.

Note:
  1. Test-suite upload will take a few seconds to about a minute depending on the size of your test-suite. Do not interrupt the cURL command until you get the response back.
  2. You can also delete a test-suite that was previously uploaded to BrowserStack using REST API. By default, we will delete the uploaded test-suite after 30 days from the date of upload.
