Automating the test injection of camera images with Android emulator on Lambdatest

Testing the functionality associated with cameras in cellular applications can be a challenge, especially when you have to validate it on several devices. That is why we introduce the camera injection of camera injection testing on an Android emulator.

With our new image injection fire, you can now simulate the camera input directly in the emulator. This means you can automate and measure your testing for camera -centered workflows without the need for physical devices.

Why do the camera image injection test?

Camera image injection testing is very important for cellular applications that interact with cameras (for example, face recognition, barcode scan, augmented reality).

This is why it was done:

• You can simulate camera input (such as QR code, selfie, etc.) without the need for physical device interaction.
• Cellular applications that rely on camera input (such as OCR or Barcode readers) can be tested for truth and durability using consistent and recurrent image data.
• You don’t need to direct the camera manually to the object. Conversely, predetermined images are injected, making the process faster and more efficient.
• This allows testing in various image conditions (low light, blurred, different formats) which may be difficult to reproduce manually.

How does Lambdatest simplify the camera injection test test on Android?

The camera image injection feature on Lambdatest allows you to test special functionality of the camera in your cellular application on various Android emulators and OS versions.

Benefit:

• Broad device coverage: Test on the virtual device lab from the Android Emulator Online.
• Comprehensive Testing Scope: Supports all functionality of the core camera: shooting, scanning QR code, and barcode scanning.
• Smooth integration: Integrate smoothly in the workflow of your existing application testing.

Lambdatest uses sensor instrumentation, so when you activate the injection of the image for your testing session, Lambdatest injects a special camera code module into your Android application. This module then mocked or put aside the original SDK Android used by your application for camera operations. It makes your application understand the injection image as if it comes from a direct camera.

Overall!

Either you test the flow of ekyc, scan the QR code, or build AR features, you no longer need physical devices to validate camera -based actions. Simply inject your test image and simulate direct interaction on our Android emulator. Fast, can be discovered, and perfect for a team who wants to streamline cellular automation.
