Installation

  1. clone this repo.
  2. cd to the folder.
  3. Run pip install .

Usage

Commissioning Matter device

$ ui-automator --commission DEVICE_NAME,PAIRING_CODE,ROOM_NAME
  • DEVICE_NAME: desired Matter device, e.g. m5stack
  • PAIRING_CODE: pairing code of your Matter device, e.g. 34970112332
  • ROOM_NAME: room that is going to be assigned, e.g. Office

Decommissioning Matter device

$ ui-automator --decommission DEVICE_NAME
  • DEVICE_NAME: display name of commissioned Matter device on GHA, e.g. m5stack

Regression Test

$ ui-automator --commission DEVICE_NAME,PAIRING_CODE,ROOM_NAME --regtest [--repeat <REPEAT_TIMES>]
  • flag --regtest is required
  • regression test need to be used with flag --commission
  • regression test now only supports commissioning/decommissioning cycle
  • defaultly, regression test will run until users use keyboard interrupt to stop the process
  • add --repeat to run regression test in limited times
  • REPEAT_TIMES: repeated times for regression test

Roadmap

  • [x] Commissioning Matter device
  • [x] Decommissioning Matter device
  • [x] Regression test of cycling commissioning/decommissioning
  • [ ] Support regression test for devices that need additionally manual operations after decommissioning to recover to BLE commissioning mode
  • [ ] Share Fabric
  • [ ] Get pairing code when sharing fabric

Notice

  • While UI Automation is processing, interfering android phone with any UI operation might fail the automation.
