Testing

Mobile Publisher for Experience Cloud

• Automate UI testing with UTAM (UI Test Automation Model). For more information, see Test with the UI Test Automation Model (UTAM) for Your App.
• Although testing in the beta app is an acceptable practice, don’t use it as the initial go-to for testing. Use the Publisher Playground app to view and test your Experience Cloud sites in an app environment.
• When you create a site for testing in a sandbox, ensure that the underlying technology is the same as the site in production. For example, if your production site uses an LWR template, your sandbox site must use the same LWR template. And if your production site uses an Aura template, the sandbox site must use the same Aura template.
• Sandbox URLs can change after a sandbox refresh, so keep this possibility in mind. If the sandbox URL changes, a new beta app submission is required with the updated sandbox URL.
• Test the production ready Experience Cloud site in a mobile browser setting before submitting the app for approval.
• Before distributing to the branded app, test out the Experience Cloud site in a mobile browser on an actual mobile device and fix any layout or functional issues.
• Test URL behavior on both Android and iOS to verify that links open consistently across platforms. In particular, test links to external sites that share the same domain as your Experience Cloud site, and verify that authentication flows such as MFA and SAML complete without unexpected redirects. For more information, see Manage How URLs Open from Your App.
• Locate the version number of your app for reference when testing.
