Testing NG client on Virtual Mobile Device

[Thomas.shuttleworth]

Hi,

I'm adding camera functionality to an app in the NG client and was wondering if there's a way I can test if the camera is accessed, perhaps a virtual device. If there's a way I can test it on a physical device that would also help.

Thanks in advance

Hi Thomas,

you should be able to connect a physical device to your development machine, just look at the URL in the browser and replace 'localhost' with the actual IP address of your machine.

At least on Mac you can use the iOS simulator to mimic almost any iOS device out there.
I'm less focussed on Android/Windows phone, but maybe someone else can comment on that?

Hope this helps (at least a bit )

Hi Marc,

Thanks for your help, I used both of your suggestions and I should be able to proceed from here.

Thanks again

You can use Genymotion to emulate android devices https://www.genymotion.com/
