Local Builds

Register and install local .ipa, .app, and .apk builds for testing.

What is a build?

A build is a local app binary registered with Yoqa so runs can install it on the connected device before executing cases.

Supported artifacts:

Platform	Formats
iOS	.ipa, .app (simulator)
Android	.apk

Register a build

In the desktop app, attach a build to an app, or use the CLI:

yoqa builds list APP
yoqa builds create APP --path ./MyApp.app
yoqa builds delete APP <build-id>

When you start a run, pass buildId (or a direct buildPath in advanced flows) so Yoqa installs the artifact on the selected device.

Tips

• Prefer simulator .app for fast iOS Simulator iteration; use signed .ipa for physical devices.
• Keep package / bundle IDs aligned with the app identifiers.
• If the app is already installed and you only need to launch it, you can run without registering a new build.

App Store / TestFlight / remote URL installs are not required for Phase 1 local workflows. Point at files on disk.
