Using the All Actions Menu on Real Device Browsers

Overview

The All Actions tab in the Pcloudy platform provides a comprehensive toolkit for deep inspection, debugging, and advanced interaction with real devices. It enables users to inspect elements for debugging, perform local testing, and validate UI behavior directly through a real Chrome browser session.

With extensive keyboard action support, testers can simulate real user inputs, while network profile simulation helps evaluate application performance under varying bandwidth and connectivity conditions. Users can also simulate device location for geo-specific testing, update language settings to validate accessibility and localization flows, and even inject images to test functionalities like QR code scanning.

Together, these capabilities empower teams to thoroughly test, analyze, and optimize their apps in real device environments with precision and efficiency.
