is it possible to run on mobiles not chrome mobile

[tallevy22]

Hi im working with Perfectomobile cloud for testing, to run on desktop I use these parameters:
--browser=remote --server=XXX.perfectomobile.com/nexperience/perfectomobile --port=8080 --protocol=https --cap_file=../capabilities/cap_perfecto_chrome.py
do I have an option to run on remote mobile?

Hi @tallevy22, the --mobile option enables the Chromium Mobile Device Emulator, which works for both Chrome browsers and Edge browsers. Here are the full details about it from the SeleniumBase docs:

Use --mobile to quickly run your tests using Chrome's mobile device emulator with default values for device metrics (CSS Width, CSS Height, Pixel-Ratio) and a default value set for the user agent. To configure the mobile device metrics, use --metrics="CSS_Width,CSS_Height,Pixel_Ratio" to set those values. You'll also be able to set the user agent with --agent="USER-AGENT-STRING" (a default user agent will be used if not specified). To find real values for device metrics, see this GitHub Gist. For a list of available user agent strings, check out this page.

# Run tests using Chrome's mobile device emulator (default settings)
pytest test_swag_labs.py --mobile

# Run mobile tests specifying CSS Width, CSS Height, and Pixel-Ratio
pytest test_swag_labs.py --mobile --metrics="411,731,3"

# Run mobile tests specifying the user agent
pytest test_swag_labs.py --mobile --agent="Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 9; Pixel 3 XL)"

If you're running tests on a Selenium Grid that supports mobile emulation, you may need to pass that option as part of the capabilities file instead (if the --mobile option doesn't work). The https://github.com/seleniumbase/SeleniumBase/tree/master/examples/capabilities page has a ReadMe for using a capabilities file. The Perfectomobile website may have a list of custom capabilities that you can use. Each Grid provider has their own custom capabilities. First check if --mobile works, and if it doesn't, find the custom Perfectomobile option for the cap file instead.
