Android in docker solution with noVNC supported and video recording
You can easily scale your Appium tests on Genymotion Android virtual devices in the cloud. They are available on SaaS or as virtual images on AWS, GCP or Alibaba Cloud.
On SaaS
Use device.json to define the device to start. You can specify the port on which the device will start so you don’t need to change the device name in your tests every time you need to run those tests. Then run following command
export USER="xxx"
export PASS="xxx"
docker run -it --rm -p 4723:4723 -v $PWD/genymotion/example/sample_devices:/root/tmp -e TYPE=SaaS -e USER=$USER -e PASS=$PASS budtmo/docker-android-genymotion

docker run -it --rm -p 4723:4723 -v $PWD/genymotion/example/sample_devices:/root/tmp -v ~/.aws:/root/.aws -e TYPE=aws budtmo/docker-android-genymotion
