Error code: 0x80018011L

Problem

When you invoke another cloud device to run automated tests in test procedure, but do not terminate the connection with the currently-connected cloud device, TestArchitect will report an automation error. It happens because TestArchitect currently does not support testing mobile web applications running on multiple cloud devices simultaneously.

Solution

To resolve this issue, please terminate the connection with the currently-executed cloud device, before executing next tests on another cloud device. You achieve it by using the disconnect cloud device built-in action. For example:

//Connect to the 'Xperia Z' cloud device
                          name              session id
connect cloud device      Xperia Z          >>Xperia_Z_sessionID
              
//Use the 'Xperia Z' device
                          session id
use cloud device          #Xperia_Z_sessionID

//Implement action lines to perform automated mobile web-based testing on the 'Xperia Z' device
              
//Disconnect the 'Xperia Z' device
                           session id
disconnect cloud device    #Xperia_Z_sessionID

//Connect to the 'iPhone6s' cloud device
                          name              session id
connect cloud device      iPhone6s          >>iPhone6s_sessionID
              
//Use the 'iPhone6s' device
                          session id
use cloud device          #iPhone6s_sessionID

//Implement action lines to perform automated mobile web-based testing on the 'iPhone6s' device
              
//Disconnect the 'iPhone6s' device
                           session id
disconnect cloud device    #iPhone6s_sessionID
