Compatibility of Digi AnywhereUSB 24 Plus with ADB and Appium

Hello,

We are considering purchasing the Digi AnywhereUSB 24 Plus to use in our mobile automation testing setup. Our goul is to connect real mobile devices to the hub and then attach them to virtual machines for automated testing.

Could someone confirm whether, once a device is physically connected to the hub and assigned to a VM, it will be recoginzed as an ADB Device (adb devices command) and whether it will be fully operational for testing via Appium?

We would appreciate any insights or recommendations on this setup.

Best Regards

Hello,

The AWUSB 24 Plus is transparent by design, meaning that any USB devices plugged into it (that are connected to a computer which is running the AWUSB Manager software) should be recognized by the computer’s Operating System as if they were plugged directly into the computer. The AWUSB 24 Plus is designed to function like a standard USB hub functions, in other words (except of course the AWUSB 24 Plus is a network-attached device).
