Genymotion and CloudBeat Team Up, Making Mobile-First Test Applications Easier for the QA Community
Today, Genymotion is announcing its integration with the revolutionary test automation intelligence platform, CloudBeat. For the first time, CloudBeat users in the QA space can scale their tests across all Genymotion Android virtual devices, saving time and increasing efficiency. CloudBeat is a central hub for executing and analyzing automated tests in DevOps environment. CloudBeat seamlessly integrates with the most popular testing frameworks and CI tools, allowing to run large test sets with out of the box parallelization, test lab management, and failure root cause analysis CloudBeat team has also developed a complementary open source project called Oxygen that allows to create Appium and Selenium tests in minutes and hours instead of days and weeks. With Oxygen IDE, less technical people can create, maintain and run mobile tests on tens and hundreds of devices. As part of the integration, you will now be able to run your tests hassle-free on over 200 most popular Android virtual devices. Test runs can be triggered directly from CloudBeat or from your favorite CI tool. The platform will take care of building the test infrastructure, managing the devices and running the tests in parallel. Defects, device logs, performance metrics and test code errors are aggregated, and instantly available in one cohesive report. Other features that testers can benefit from: Tests can be synced and ran directly from your Git repository No need to create a Master Slave in Jenkins or setup a complex parallel testing infrastructure All test results are aggregated and retained per build, environment, and project Spot defects, flaky tests and environment issues instantly with detailed test result reports “We’re thrilled to be giving users the ability to scale their test cases to over 200 Android virtual devices,” Genymotion’s CEO, Timothy Danford states, “The integration with CloudBeat opens up the possibilities for the testing community to get their work done at speeds they never imagined before.” “The combination of CloudBeat platform and Genymotion Cloud takes the friction out of mobile automated testing, allowing to instantly run and analyze tests on hundreds of Android devices and screen resolutions in parallel,” said Nachum Dimer, CEO of CloudBeat. “Developers and testers can count on this integration supporting faster releases with higher quality than ever.” Learn more about how to use CloudBeat with Genymotion in this brief video.

Android Emulation Provider Genymobile Reaches 4 Million Hours of Usage; Appoints New CEO to Drive Further Success of Flagship Product, Genymotion Cloud
San Francisco, April 30, 2019: Industry-leading provider of Android emulation solutions, Genymobile, announced today that its cloud-based Android emulation service, Genymotion Cloud has clocked more than 4 million hours of usage since its launch in November 2016. To help the company capitalize on the recent growth, and navigate its efforts to the next-level, they have brought on a new CEO, an industry veteran, and someone who has previously led innovative teams at Facebook, Tim Danford. As the flagship product of Genymobile, Genymotion Cloud has experienced tremendous levels of growth. With a near 20% compounded monthly growth rate (CMGR), there are currently over 2,000 developers using the emulator on just Amazon Web Services (AWS) marketplace alone to build and deliver Android applications to their customers. Adoption of the cloud-based solution, Genymotion Cloud is growing across the Android testing and QA (Quality Assurance) ecosystem as it enables developers and QA engineers to scale their automated tests and reduce time-to-market of their applications. Genymotion Cloud easily integrates into development and test automation frameworks, and the most popular Continuous Integration (CI) servers such as Jenkins and Cucumber via a unique, cloud scale implementation of Android Debug Bridge (ADB). Notable customers using Genymotion Cloud include Yammer and BlackBerry Messenger (BBM). Yammer (Microsoft), a customer since September 2017, uses Genymotion Cloud SaaS daily to test their mobile apps and has spent over 200,000 hours on the platform. Test Engineers at Yammer find virtual devices to be much faster to use than device farms where device availability is longer. Additionally, BBM successfully migrated their Android Continuous Integration development environment to the cloud using Genymotion and uses over 450 hours of Android virtual device emulation every day. “Genymotion Cloud is very reliable and scalable. We can create, start, and destroy emulators quickly, easily, and reliably. We run dozens of sessions of instrumented, automated tests reliably at scale every day. It also provides tools that are easy to use and has all the necessary functionality we need to achieve what we want to do.”, says Sen from Engineering team at BBM. To drive this continued growth of Genymotion Cloud the company recently appointed Tim Danford as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman to steer its expansion in the cloud. Arnaud Dupuis, founder and CTO of Genymobile says “I’m pleased to welcome Tim as our CEO. He has been an active advisor to Genymobile since 2013 and understands the company and the market very well. He brings deep experience in mobile and cloud technologies. Tim has a proven track record as an entrepreneur and most recently led innovative teams at Facebook. Tim’s vision and execution track record is exactly what we need as we unfold the next chapter of growth with Genymotion Cloud.” “I’m excited to join the company at a time when Genymotion is scaling on the cloud. We are already seeing double digit growth with early customer access across Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, and Alibaba Cloud. We will focus on exploring new ways to use the service and work on improving developer and QA experience by integrating better with existing tools and frameworks used by our customers. We intend to be a big part of Android Pyramidal Testing in the cloud”, says Danford, who was a Director at Facebook Connectivity Lab prior to joining Genymobile.
