AstroFarm Private Mobile App Testing Platform

Build Your Private Mobile Device Farm with AstroFarm

If you have a remote team of software developers and QA/Testing teams involved in building mobile applications, you may be facing a very common challenge - how to give them access to real mobile devices. You might have all kinds of devices across your offices or spread across team members, but the challenge is getting them in the hands of the users who need them.

You could pay for a rental device farm or a mobile app testing platform, but if you own all the devices you need, this would be equivalent to buying devices twice - not a good value.

AstroFarm empowers your team of developers and testers to access your company’s devices from anywhere, at any time. Take your DevOps to a new level by building a device farm from the devices you already own.

Staging Enrollment For Android Devices
04:01

Staging Enrollment For Android Devices

This new feature allows administrators to streamline the process of enrolling and preparing devices by first placing them in a staging group. In this staging environment, essential profiles and jobs can be applied before the devices are moved to their actual user group. The transition from the staging group to the actual user group is controlled through SAML authentication and the input of a staging password. Set Up Device Enrollment Authentication to SAML: Navigate to Account Settings - Device Enrollment Settings - Device Enrollment Rules. Select SAML as the Enrollment Authentication Type. You will need to configure the necessary parameters, including the Identity Provider (IdP) details and service URLs. Enable Staging Enrollment Option: Within the enrollment settings, enable the "Enable Staging Enrollment" option. This ensures that newly enrolled devices are first placed in the staging group. Select the Staging Group: Choose the specific staging group to which devices will be initially assigned. Apply these changes to finalize the setup. Create an Enrollment QR Code in Device Owner Mode: In the SureMDM console, generate an enrollment QR code. This QR code will be used to enroll devices in Device Owner (DO) mode, which is required for managing the entire device. Ensure the "Enable Staging Enrollment" option is enabled during the QR code generation process. This setting will direct devices to the staging group upon enrollment. Distribute the QR code to your IT team or personnel responsible for device enrollment. Enroll the Device Using the Generated QR Code: On a fresh (factory reset) device, initiate the enrollment process by scanning the QR code generated from the SureMDM console. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the enrollment. The device will automatically be placed in the staging group upon successful enrollment. Device Enrollment into the Staging Group: Once enrolled, the device will appear in the staging group within the SureMDM console. The system will automatically deploy the pre-configured default jobs and profiles associated with the staging group onto the device. The user will be prompted to enter the Staging Password. This additional security measure ensures that only authorized users can enroll the device to the staging group. SAML Authentication and Staging Password: Open the SureMDM agent application on the enrolled device. The user will be prompted to log in using the configured SAML authentication method. This typically involves entering credentials that are validated against your organization’s Identity Provider. Upon successful validation, the device will automatically transition from the staging group to the actual user group as per the settings in the AD server. The default jobs and profiles assigned to the actual user group will then be applied to the device, ensuring it is fully configured and ready for use by the end user.
