E2E Video Recorder

Run local iOS/Android UI E2E tests with automatic MP4 screen recordings, then upload to blossom for PR descriptions.

Takes an optional platform argument: ios, android, or both (default: both). Takes an optional test method argument to run a single test.

Step 1: Run tests with recording

iOS

PIKA_UI_E2E_RECORD_VIDEO=1 KEEP=1 just ios-ui-e2e-local

Single test method:

PIKA_UI_E2E_RECORD_VIDEO=1 KEEP=1 \
  PIKA_IOS_E2E_TEST_METHOD=<testMethodName> \
  just ios-ui-e2e-local

Android (requires nix)

nix develop -c env PIKA_UI_E2E_RECORD_VIDEO=1 KEEP=1 just android-ui-e2e-local

Single test method:

nix develop -c env \
  PIKA_UI_E2E_RECORD_VIDEO=1 KEEP=1 \
  PIKA_ANDROID_E2E_TEST_CLASS='com.pika.app.PikaE2eUiTest#<methodName>' \
  just android-ui-e2e-local

Step 2: Verify recordings

Recordings are written to screen_recordings/ with timestamped filenames:

• ios-ui-e2e-local-<unix_ms>.mp4
• android-ui-e2e-local-<unix_ms>.mp4

Verify:

ffprobe screen_recordings/<file>.mp4

Step 3: Upload to blossom

cargo run -p pikahut -- blossom-upload screen_recordings/*.mp4

URLs are printed to stdout, one per line. Use these in PR descriptions.

To upload a single file:

cargo run -p pikahut -- blossom-upload screen_recordings/<file>.mp4
