Installing the BrowserStack fork of TestCafe

You can use the browserstack fork of testcafe by executing the following command.

yarn add "https://github.com/browserstack/testcafe.git#session_test_mapping"

Then try running the following command to see if browserstack-provider is present or not.

./node_modules/.bin/testcafe -b browserstack

If the error is something like unable to find the specified browser provider. Then try installing the provider using the following command.

yarn add "https://github.com/browserstack/testcafe-browser-provider-browserstack.git#devexpress_master_step_logs"

About the feature.

If one wants to enable test level scheduling in the testcafe core library. This can be enabled through the flag --test-scheduling. This flag will enable the test level scheduling and will spawn a new test in a new Cloud Session.

Example for the flag use would be:

testcafe '<browser-combination>' simple_fixture.testcafe.js --test-scheduling

This flag can also be used with concurrency and multiple browser combinations.

# With concurrency
testcafe -c 2 '<browser-combination>' simple_fixture.testcafe.js --test-scheduling

# With multiple browser combination.
testcafe -c 3 '<browser-combination>,<browser-combination>,...' simple_fixture.testcafe.js --test-scheduling

This will create every test('<test-name>', callback) in a new session.

Using default behavior

This scheduling is being controlled through --test-scheduling flag, if one doesn't use the flag in the command, default behavior of TestCafe will be used.
