Capture network payload data during an automation session

Learn how to capture network payload data during an automation session so you can review network payload data in Session Explorer.

Before you start

You’ll need to set up network payload capture.

Enable network payload capture

You can add the capability to your existing capabilities, or you can auto-generate new capabilities to use instead.

In your test suite’s config file, set useConfiguration to the configuration you previously created.

Example

public static DesiredCapabilities getIPhone11ProIOS146DesiredCapabilities() {
        DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();

        capabilities.setCapability("kobiton:useConfiguration", "https-requests");

    return capabilities;
}

When you’re finished, save your changes, then start your automation session.

Launch Session Explorer

After your session, select Sessions.

Select Sessions tab
