askui controls your operating system (OS) through mouse movement, mouseclicks, keypresses and screencapture.Thus it can be a pain to install it on your local machine. Not everything might work out of the box or there are simply permissions missing (looking at you macOS 🫣).But we have a solution we will show you in this blog post!Our GitHub repository has a ready-to-go Gitpod configuration inside where you can try out askui for free in your browser without any installation issues.All you need is a GitHub account and a Gitpod account 🦄
Custom Element Selection is a feature in askui that enables you to create custom selectors for elements on the screen, instead of relying on the standard selectors provided such as Button, Textfield, etc. .Here we will demonstrate how to use a custom element to explore Google Street View.
Today, we're building a two-factor authentication GitHub workflow automation with a browser we have on our Personal Computer (PC) and a physical Android device.
When using jest as the framework for your test, it's often desired to have a report that summarises the run result neatly. Although jest comes with a default test reporter, which prints out the report in the console directly, one could wish to have a discrete report, e.g as an XML or HTML, that can be stored and shared among team members.This article covers the usage of a test reporter within jest framework. Particularly, we will set up the jest-junit and jest-html-reporter.
This tutorial shows how to automate multiple devices on the same network by using askui library.
This tutorial demonstrates different methods to handle text elements with askui. askui offers four different methods
This tutorial shows how to use askui to automate an android app built with Flutter.
In this tutorial, we will explain how all the different relational selectors work in askui, so you get a thorough understanding of them. Relational selectors can be difficult and sometimes confusing to work with at first. Sometimes it is even not clear why a specific element will not be selected or why the selector does not seem to work. After reading this tutorial you will know how to use the full power of all the relational selectors. Additionally, you learn what pitfalls you can fall into and how to avoid them in the future.
In this tutorial, we will automate web browser searching on Android devices. This tutorial assumes that you have already set up your Android test device, alongside the Android Development Environment. If you haven't set it up yet, you can check out our previous tutorial.
In this tutorial, we will walk you through how to set up an Android device for developing and testing mobile apps running on Android devices. Depending on the testing environment, i.e. whether it is a real Android device or an emulator, the procedure might slightly differ. But the overall process of the setup will be more or less the same.
This tutorial will show you how you can utilize askuis get()-command to write more powerful automation. With the get()-command you can extract the information askui inferred. Many more automation possibilities become available 🔥.
This tutorial will show you how to zip files on your filesystem and then upload them to Google Drive on Windows OS. The goal is to show you a lot of the askui SDK methods in action. Using visual selectors and automation on OS level often feels confusing at first. This tutorial will give you many of the tools you need to automate your own workflows.
This post is part of our unit series, covering definitions and best practices. We cover JUnit, which is the most common unit testing framework in Java.

Automating Flutter app is quite a challenge due to its benefits of being cross-platform. We show how askui can be leveraged to automate an example flutter application.
askui is a platform-independent, selector-free UI automation framework. Instead of controlling elements via selectors such as XPath or CSS selectors and thus being limited to web applications, askui controls the UI at the operating system level.
