Supported platforms

Perfecto integrates with and supports the IDEs, device platforms, and test frameworks specified here.

Minimal requirements

The Perfecto UI requires a resolution of at least 1366 x 768 pixels. We recommend a resolution of 1400 x 900 pixels or higher.
The following may lead to unexpected results:
- Resizing windows
- Scaling the size of text, apps, and other items using zoom
Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 and earlier and Apple Safari 10 and earlier are deprecated for viewing the Perfecto UI.

For additional information, see also Best network practices.

Device platforms

With the latest version of Perfecto, automation testing is supported on the device platforms listed in this section.

Important: Based on the deprecation policy, Perfecto no longer supports older versions of the mobile OS. For details, see Suspension of support policy | Mobile device OS.

Desktop web

In addition to a large set of mobile devices, the Perfecto Continuous Quality Lab provides a set of desktop-web environments for testing web applications. The web environments are characterized by:

Operating system, such as Windows 8.1 or MacOS Sierra
Browser version, such as Chrome v62, Firefox v58, or Safari v11
Screen resolution to support testing responsive web applications
Browser location setting, either US East, AP Sydney, or EU Frankfurt

The web device is presented to the test script as a virtual machine, hosted by the Perfecto Lab. Normal initialization for the latest version combinations of the VM is approximately 7-10 seconds.

Supported platforms

Use the browserVersion capability to select the version of the browser to configure in your desktop web device.

You can follow the browser version roadmaps at the following links:

Windows

Windows version¹	Chrome	Firefox	IE	Edge²	Windows OS Server edition
7³	99-108, beta	100-109, beta	11		Windows Server 2008 R2
8.1³	99-108, beta	100-109, beta	11		Windows Server 2012 R2
10	102-111, beta	102-111, beta	Not supported⁴	101-110, beta	Windows Server 2016
11	102-111, beta	102-111, beta	Not supported	101-110, beta	Windows Server 2022

¹ Some Windows versions run on Windows Server, as listed above.

² Edge is configured to disable the pop-up blocker.

³ This version is deprecated and will be End of Life (EOL) as of May 1, 2023.

⁴ Support for this version was ended by Microsoft on June 15, 2022.

Due to Microsoft licensing issues, its Microsoft Server counterpart is supplied when you request a desktop edition. This does not affect the view or the input needed in the capabilities, but it entails the usage of slightly different libraries.

Screen resolutions

1024x768 (default)
1280x1024
1366x768
1440x900
1600x1200
1920x1080
2560x1440

Mac

Mac web sessions are created using physical Mac machines installed at your Perfecto CQ Lab.

Note: Mac web sessions may require longer initialization than Windows-based web sessions.

Perfecto's Selenium web testing is supported according to the lists below.

macOS version	Safari	Chrome	Firefox
Catalina	13, 14	102-111, beta	102-111, beta
Big Sur	14, 15, 16	102-111, beta	102-111, beta
Monterey	15, 16	102-111, beta	102-111, beta
Ventura	16	102-111, beta	102-111, beta

You can only run Mac web sessions across multiple locations if your company has multiple Perfecto Labs with Mac machines installed.

Screen resolutions

800x600
1024x768 (default)
1280x1024
1280x720

2560x1440
2560x1600
3840x2160

Limitations

Except for Visual Analysis commands, Perfecto's extensions are currently not supported for desktop web testing.
When creating a session with the platformName capability set to Mac, the location capability is mandatory.
Mac web sessions are created on real machines. This limits their number and type to the Mac machines installed on-site (CQ Lab).

The following operations are not currently supported on devices with the specified configurations:

Configuration	Operations not supported
Mac with Safari browser earlier than version 11	The `driver.manage.maximize()` function due to a Selenium issue
Mac with Safari browser	MouseClick MouseMove
Firefox version 53 or later	MouseClick MouseMove Submit
Microsoft Internet Explorer	The capability `acceptInsecureCerts` is not supported due to a Selenium/Internet Explorer limitation. To work around this issue, use the following code instead: driver.get("https://staff-np6.np.mlc.com.au/user/session/staff/login/manual"); driver.findElement(By.id("moreInfoContainer")).click(); driver.findElement(By.id("overridelink")).click();

Virtual devices

This section specifies the device models, operating systems, and Appium versions supported for virtual devices.

Simulators

Perfecto supports simulators for iOS versions 13.7 and later, as specified in the following table. By default, Perfecto selects iPhone 13 with iOS 15.5.

The string in the Device model column corresponds to the value accepted by the deviceName capability. The value is not case sensitive.

^* The following limitation applies: Secured screens do not display in videos and during live testing. However, you can use 'Secured screen instrumentation' during the app installation process to ensure that secured screens will be visible in the installed app. For details, see Manage apps. For automation testing, you can use the existing capability securedScreenInstrument. To turn on instrumentation of secured screens, set this capability to true. See also Install application (FR).

The following Appium versions are supported for virtual devices. The default version is the one shown in bold (usually the latest version).

1.22.3
1.22.0
1.21.0
1.20.2
1.20.1
1.20.0

1.17.1

For more information, see Simulators (iPhones and iPads) and Emulators (Android devices).

Test frameworks

Perfecto integrates with the following:

For developers using instrumentation testing tools, the Test Framework Gradle plugin supports the following versions:

Espresso test methods for Android 4.3 or later
XCUITest test methods for iOS 10 or later (iOS 14 is supported with XCode 12 test binaries)

Selenium/Appium

The latest Perfecto version supports Selenium/Appium automation scripts based on the following server and client versions:

	iOS	Android	Desktop web	Virtual devices
Appium	Java client: 5.0.4 - 7.6.0¹		N/A	Server: 1.17.1 or later. For best performance, we recommend that you work with version 1.20.2 or later. Client: Versions compatible with the Appium server version
Appium	Java client: 8.1.0³ Sometimes requires client-code changes. For details, see https://github.com/appium/java-client/releases. Server: 1.22.3		N/A	Java client: Versions compatible with the selected Appium server version
Selenium	Client: 3.6 - 3.141.59	Client: 3.6 - 3.141.59	Server: Windows 7, 8 10, and 11: 3.4.0, 3.8.1, 4.0.0 macOS: 3.14.0, 3.141.59, 4.0.0 Client: Versions compatible with the Selenium server	Client: Versions compatible with the selected Appium client version
Selenium	Client: 4.0.0 and later Supported on Java client 8 with Appium 1.22.3		N/A	N/A

₁_{For best compatibility with Appium server, we recommend the use of Appium Java client version 7.1.0 or later.}_{Note that Java client 8.0.0 has internal issues and will work only with Selenium 4.1.2. Java client 8.x only works with Appium Server 1.20 and later.}

₂_{As a best practice, we recommend that you select only the version of the Appium client to use and let the natural dependency and compatibility between Appium server and Selenium client versions take care of the rest. If you need to select a specific Selenium client, you must make sure that the client version is compatible with the selected version of the Appium client.}

₃_{Appium Java client 8 uses a direct connection to the Appium server and therefore cannot work with the following capability: ("automationName", "PerfectoMobile");}
_{In addition, with Java client 8 or later, you must add the prefix perfecto: to any non-Appium desired capability.}
