Integration with any CI Platform

You can use the Maestro CLI to run your Flows on Maestro Cloud from any CI platform.

Prerequisites

API Key

Log into the Maestro Cloud Console -> Click on your email in the sidebar -> Select "View API Key"

iOS

Provide a path that points to an x86-compatible *.app simulator build directory, or a zipped file that contains the *.app build.

Android

You APK must be x86-compatible.

1. Organize your Flows

Add all of your Flows under a single directory in your repo. We recommend naming this directory .maestro/ as this is the naming convention our native integrations expect by default. (Note the "." at the beginning of .maestro/)

<root>
├── .maestro/
│   ├── Login.yaml
│   ├── Add to Cart.yaml
│   └── Search.yaml

All of the flows directly under the .maestro/ directory will be executed by Maestro Cloud.

Subflows

It's common to have some Flow files that are only meant to be executed as part of another Flow via the runFlow command. These "subflows" can be nested under a subdirectory to prevent them from running as a top-level Flow.

<root>
├── .maestro/
│   ├── subflows/
│   │   └── MySubflow.yaml
│   ├── Login.yaml
│   ├── Add to Cart.yaml
│   └── Search.yaml

In the example above, MySubflow.yaml will not be executed as a top-level Flow, but still can be referenced by other Flows using the runFlow command.

2. Run Flows on Maestro Cloud

1. Install the Maestro CLI

First, ensure that the Maestro CLI is installed on your CI machine:

curl -Ls "https://get.maestro.mobile.dev" | bash

You can also install the CLI using Homebrew if you prefer.

2. Run the "maestro cloud" command

Add a step in your CI workflow that executes the maestro cloud command:

maestro cloud --apiKey <apiKey> <appFile> .maestro/

<apiKey>

Maestro Cloud API Key

<appFile>

The APK file or .app directory (instructions)

.maestro/

The directory that contains your Flows

To set a name for your upload, use the --name option:

maestro cloud --apiKey <apiKey> --name <uploadName> <appFile> .maestro/

Note that you can also define your API key as an environment variable in your shell with the name MAESTRO_CLOUD_API_KEY and Maestro will automatically read it for you

3. Detect Flow Failures

The maestro cloud command and our native CI integrations will wait for your Flows to finish executing before returning.

If any Flow failures are detected, the exit code is set to 1. On success, the exit code will be set to 0. This allows you to leverage any existing test alerting you have in place.

4. View Result Details

A link to the current upload will be printed out to your logs. You can view any ongoing or past uploads in the Maestro Cloud Console.
