flowpilot-mobile 1.2.11

Modern, Intelligent Mobile Automation Framework (Compiled)

FlowPilot Mobile

FlowPilot Mobile is a high-performance, intelligent mobile automation framework built for speed, privacy, and simplicity. Unlike other frameworks that wrap heavy external engines, FlowPilot uses a custom-built, zero-dependency Intelligent ADB Runtime.

🌟 Why FlowPilot?

• Lightweight & Fast: No Java, no Node.js, and no Maestro/Appium binaries required. It talks directly to your device via ADB, making it significantly faster and easier to set up.
• Privacy-First: Designed for enterprise security. It features an anonymous licensing system with zero telemetry and no hardware/user data collection.
• Intelligent Locators: A built-in scoring engine that handles distractors automatically. It finds what you want (e.g., "Search") and ignores what you don't (e.g., "Search History").
• Zero-Sleep Synchronization: Built-in polling and smart-waits ensure elements are ready before interaction. No more manual sleep() calls.
• Auto-Scroll Search: Automatically swipes and retries if an element is off-screen.

🚀 Quick Start

1. Install via pip

pip install flowpilot-mobile

2. Initialize your Project

Initialize a new project folder with all necessary configurations:

flowpilot setup --project_folder my_tests

3. Write your first test

Create a file tests/test_demo.py:

def test_google_search(mobile):
    mobile.launch_app()
    mobile.navigate("https://www.google.com")
    mobile.fill("Search", "FlowPilot Mobile")
    mobile.press_key("Enter")
    mobile.visible("github.com")

🤖 AI-Assisted Automation (TEST_GEN_PROMPT)

FlowPilot supports Instant Test Generation via AI. Every project initialized with flowpilot setup includes a TEST_GEN_PROMPT.md file.

1. Copy the content of TEST_GEN_PROMPT.md.
2. Paste it into Gemini or ChatGPT.
3. Provide your manual test steps or describe a screen recording.
4. Result: The AI will generate a complete FlowPilot Python test script for you.

🖥️ Live Monitoring & Evidence

Live Desktop Mirroring

See your phone's screen in a window on your desktop (Mac/Windows) during execution using the integrated scrcpy support.

• Enable: Set mirror_screen: true in your flowpilot.yaml.

Automated Evidence

• Hardware-Accelerated Recording (MP4): Every test is recorded with hardware encoding (zero performance drop). Includes professional 1s padding.
• Smart Screenshots: Captures specific UI states into .flowpilot/screenshots/.
• Retention Policy: Automatically purges recordings older than 5 days (configurable) to save disk space.

🛡 Engineering Principles

1. WHAT, not HOW: Focus on test intent; FlowPilot handles the low-level ADB coordination.
2. Privacy-First: Anonymous licensing, zero telemetry, no system fingerprinting.
3. Nuitka Protected: Core logic is compiled into high-performance binaries for security.
4. Resilient Reset: Automated pre/post Home screen logic for clean repeatable baselines.
