Desktop support is currently in Beta. We would appreciate your feedback!

Maestro can test Web apps / web pages running on a desktop browser.

Example Usage

The syntax is exactly the same as for any other Maestro test. For readability, you should specify url instead of an appId in your test file (but they're synonyms behind the scenes).

# example.yaml

url: https://maestro.mobile.dev
---
- launchApp
- tapOn: Installing Maestro
- assertVisible: Installing the CLI

Then run it with:

maestro test example.yaml

Maestro will spend some time downloading Chromium on the first launch. Each following test will run much faster.

Maestro Studio

To launch Maestro Studio for Web, use the -p web option:

maestro -p web studio

Other Resources

Known Limitations

These features are not supported yet but should be feasible to implement if there is a common demand:

  • Different browsers support (current default is Chromium)

  • Different locales support (current default is en-US)

  • Screen size configuration

Flutter Web is different, in the same way Flutter Mobile is different. See the docs for how to use Semantics to make elements addressable.
