[QUESTION] About Saucelabs test execution name and completion status

[kavithamahesh]

Question

Is there any parameter available to pass the flow name as the test name? I would like to include the build version number in the test name to identify the tests quickly on Saucelabs. Is that possible?

The execution result on Saucelabs is not marked as failed or passed. Is this change on your radar?

Appium + Saucelabs execution result:
Default test execution name: Default Appium Test
Test execution result: Completed

My current command to run the test:
maestro-runner \
--driver appium
--platform android
--appium-url "test-url"
--caps ../config/caps-android-sauce.json
test smoke.yaml

Context

What are you trying to accomplish?

Test results will be the same in all places and easy to track.

What I've Tried

• Checked documentation
• Searched existing issues
• Tried [approach]

Environment (if relevant)

• maestro-runner version:1.0.7

@kavithamahesh, thanks for raising this!

To be transparent — I don't have access to Sauce Labs and won't be setting one up, since we operate in an overlapping space (we run an enterprise device lab). So I'm not in the best position to implement or test Sauce Labs-specific integrations.

That said, I can share how this generally works with Appium: typically, the test name is passed via desired capabilities, and results are updated through provider-specific API calls. I'm happy to look into supporting the general pattern — like allowing test name passthrough via desired capabilities — since that's provider-agnostic and useful for everyone.

However, I want to be upfront: anything too specific to a single provider's API (like updating test status on Sauce Labs) isn't something I should take on, both due to my professional background and because I wouldn't be able to do it justice without proper access and testing.

If the Sauce Labs team (or anyone from the community) wants to contribute this integration, I'd absolutely welcome a PR and will make sure to provide the right hooks and space for it.

Make sense. Let me reach out to saucelabs team.

@kavithamahesh can you close it ?
