Platforms
Platforms are the individual entries within a platform group — for example, iOS and Android inside a Mobile OS group. The configuration wizard combines platforms across groups to generate test configurations.
Before you begin
Create a platform group first. Every platform must belong to a platform group. If no groups exist, create one under Platform Groups before adding platforms.
Creating a platform
- Go to Admin → Configurations.
- Select the platform group you want to add to in the Platform Groups panel. The Platforms panel on the right updates to show platforms in that group.
- Click Add Platform.
- Enter a Name for the platform (e.g., iOS 17, Chrome, macOS Sonoma).
- Optionally pick an Icon to represent the platform visually.
- Choose whether the platform is Enabled.
- Click Save.
The platform group cannot be changed after creation. A platform is permanently associated with the group it was created in. To move a platform to a different group, delete it and re-create it in the correct group.
Editing a platform
Click the edit action on any platform row to update its name, icon, or enabled state. The platform group is read-only in the edit form.
Enabling and disabling a platform
Disabled platforms are excluded from the configuration wizard — they will not appear in Step 1 when selecting platforms to combine. Existing configurations that already include the platform are unaffected.
Re-enable a platform at any time to make it available in the wizard again.
Deleting a platform
Click the delete action on a platform row and confirm. The platform is permanently removed from its group.
Deleting a platform may affect existing configurations. If the platform is part of any existing configurations, those configurations will still exist but will reference a removed platform. Review your configurations before deleting a platform.
