Automated GUI Testing for Native Android Apps

Squish for Android UI offers complete support for automating native Android apps across phones, tablets, and emulators.

Learn more about Squish

Squish enables reliable, object-based interaction with all standard and custom UI components ensuring tests remain stable even when the UI changes.

Testers can simulate real-world user behavior with features like multi-touch, gesture recognition, and full access to all view properties. This results in highly maintainable tests and accelerated test cycles. Squish supports fast, accurate validation of Android apps in any development environment.

Automated GUI Testing for Android Automotive

Squish for Android Automotive is purpose-built for testing in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) systems and Android-based embedded UIs.

Learn more about Automated GUI Testing for Android Automotive

Squish supports object-level access to both standard and custom automotive UI elements, including rotary inputs, touchscreens, and gesture-based interactions.

QA teams can automate real-world driving scenarios, verify multi-screen behavior, and validate user flows across both driver and passenger displays. Tests can be executed on real hardware or emulators, helping automotive teams catch issues early and improve UI responsiveness. Ideal for OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers, Squish helps deliver safer, more stable automotive software faster.

Automated Testing for Android Embedded GUIs

Squish for Android Embedded offers complete support for automating Android-based interfaces on custom hardware and non-GMS devices.

Learn more about Squish

Squish delivers reliable, object-based interaction with standard, hybrid, and custom UI components, ensuring tests remain stable across firmware updates, screen variations, and hardware constraints. With remote execution over TCP/IP, teams can test devices from anywhere. Multi-language scripting, visual checkpoints, and full access to view properties enable maintainable, reproducible tests and audit-ready evidence for every build. Seamless integration with CI/CD tools, Jira, and TestRail ensures fast, accurate validation in any embedded development environment.

 

A Single Solution for Hybrid, Native, and Multi-Device Android Testing

Squish provides full access to native and custom Android UI elements, including gestures, multi-touch, and complex view components. Its object-based recognition keeps tests stable and maintainable across devices, OS versions, and UI updates.

Hybrid App Testing: Native Android + Web

Squish enables end-to-end testing of hybrid applications by supporting both native Android elements and embedded web content (WebViews). With Squish for Android combined with Squish for Web, teams can validate entire user journeys across mixed interfaces without switching tools or splitting test logic.

Multi-App and Multi-Device Workflows

Squish supports automated testing across multiple Android devices and applications within a single test scenario. This allows validation of app-to-app communication, companion device behaviour, or system-level user flows, all essential for connected or embedded Android systems.

Flexible Test Creation Across All Android Platforms

Squish supports automated testing on Android 2.2+, including phones, tablets, emulators, and Android Automotive. Create tests visually or with scripts (Python, JavaScript), reuse them across devices and OS versions, and integrate with CI/CD tools like Jenkins and GitLab for continuous testing.

Reliable Automation for Complex Android and Embedded UIs

Accelerate Testing Cycles
