Parallel execution tests for both platforms iOS&Android simultaneously

[Denys_Voskovets]

Sorry for newbie question. I found that we can run tests in parallel for each platform. http://appium.io/docs/en/advanced-concepts/parallel-tests/

But I have a question. Can we run one test.xml file with tests for both platforms simultaneously?
or we should have test.xml for each platform?

Can somebody explain and give some examples?

Thank you

 <test name="Samsung Galaxy S7">
	<parameter name="deviceName_" value="Samsung Galaxy S" />
	<parameter name="platformName" value="android" />
	<parameter name="udid" value="ce0117110d5a2f1105" />
	<parameter name="platformVersion_" value="7.0" />
	<parameter name="URL_" value="0.0.0.0:4725/wd/hub" />
	<parameter name="apppackage" value="com.mbrdi.travelbook.android" />
	<parameter name="appactivity" value="com.mbrdi.travelbook.android.view.activity.BaseActivity" />

	<classes>

Hi, thanks for your answer. But i don’t clearly understand.
we have

test name=“Samsung Galaxy S7”>
<parameters
<classes what to run.

Then we need to add
test name=“iPhone”>
<parameters
<the same classes to run

Am I right?

I have shared fr android only… Parameters are Capabilities which I am passing to my script where I have kept variables to assign value of the parameters… example is if I want to run 3 classes at the same time then I ll pass those class names in classes tag i.e this… com.mbrdi.cc.testscripts.LandingScreenTest
