Text logs

Text logs are a comprehensive record of your test session. They are used to identify all the steps executed in the test and troubleshoot errors for any failed steps. Text logs include information about the test session’s desired capabilities and detailed information about every request and response. Text logs are accessible both from the App Automate dashboard, as well as using our REST API.

Text logs are enabled by default, and cannot be disabled.

Access text logs from the dashboard:

To access text logs, in the App Automate dashboard, go to your build. Select the test and click the Text Logs tab. The App Automate dashboard displays richly formatted text logs as shown below:

You can use the following cURL request to view the text logs.
