Fix Connectivity

Function: FIX_CONNECTIVITY

The FIX_CONNECTIVITY function triggers the handset's built-in connectivity repair (Settings > Network & internet > Internet > Fix connectivity) and confirms that the connection actually drops and then recovers within the timeout, rather than only that the control was tapped.

Supported on: Android, Google Pixel handsets on Android 16 only. Saving a test case that uses it on any other device is refused.

Parameters

Parameter Name Description Example Values Required Default Value
TIMEOUT Seconds to wait for the connection to drop and come back. Integer seconds, 0-3700. 60, 90 Yes

There is no EXPECT parameter: the step passes only when the connection drops and recovers within TIMEOUT.

Result

  • Pass: connectivity went down after the repair started and was restored before TIMEOUT ran out.
  • Fail: the connection never dropped, or it did not recover within TIMEOUT.

Example

  1. FIX_CONNECTIVITY with TIMEOUT = 90
  2. CHECK_URL or PING to confirm that data works again
