Integrate your test suite
Integrate Automate Turboscale into your test suite using the BrowserStack WebdriverIO service.
The BrowserStack WDIO service ensures a plug-and-play integration. It passes test context and configures other BrowserStack features under the hood without requiring any code changes.
Prerequisites
- Node v12+, Selenium v2.5+ (W3C/JSON Wire)
- An existing WebdriverIO based web automation test suite.
Integration steps
Install BrowserStack WDIO service
Use either of the following ways to install BrowserStack WDIO service to your project:
npm install @wdio/browserstack-service --save-dev
"devDependencies": {
"@wdio/browserstack-service": "^7",
}
Update your WebdriverIO config file
Update your configuration file with the following parameters to run tests on Automate TurboScale.
At the end of this step, you will have a sample configuration file with BrowserStack capabilities to use in your project.
Add BrowserStack service
Add browserstack to the services list in your configuration file.
Set platforms to test on
Set the browsers/devices you want to test within the capabilities array. Our config follows W3C formatted capabilities.
BrowserStack Reporting

Character limit: 255
Set a project name for your project.
sessionName is the name of your test sessions and is automatically picked from your test class/spec name. It doesn’t need to be set manually when using Automate Turboscale.
Use additional debugging features
Additionally, you can enable the following features:
Use Automate Turboscale
Update configuration file with selected capabilities
Copy the following code snippet and add it to your configuration file of your test suite.
In the above eample code snippet, it is essential to set the following parameters:
hostname - is the grid url found on the overview page of your automation-console
For example, if your grid url is https://cbsorgle-hub.browserstack-ats.com/wd/hub, the hostname will be cbsorgle-hub.browserstack-ats.com
path - /wd/hub
port - 443 if using https protocol, or 4444 if using http protocol
protocol - https or http
