Browserstack iOS simulators

By default, your Selenium and JS tests will run on real iOS devices on BrowserStack. Since we are in the implementation phase, we are still working on a few things, such as adding more devices, ability to test on local URLs, etc.

In case your tests are facing any issues on real iOS devices, we also provide iOS simulators where you can run your automated tests smoothly.

To access our iOS simulators, use the following capabilities:

customLaunchers: {
  iPad_3: {
    real_mobile: false,
    device: 'iPad 3rd (6.0)',
    os: 'ios',
    'os_version': '6.0',
    'browser_version': null,
    browser: 'Mobile Safari'
  }
}

List of iOS simulators you can test on:

device: 'iPad 3rd', 'os_version': '5.1'
device: 'iPad 3rd (6.0)', 'os_version': '6.0'
device: 'iPad Mini', 'os_version': '7.0'
device: 'iPad 4th', 'os_version': '7.0'
device: 'iPhone 4S', 'os_version': '5.1'
device: 'iPhone 4S (6.0)', 'os_version': '6.0'
device: 'iPhone 5', 'os_version': '6.0'
device: 'iPhone 5S', 'os_version': '7.0'

BrowserStack's REST API documentation explains how to retrieve a list of desired capabilities for browsers.
