How to fix Bitbar not working
BitBar, part of SmartBear, runs automated and manual tests on real phones and browsers in the cloud, and connects to CI pipelines. Developers and QA engineers use it. Find your symptom below. Most problems come from a sign-in, a test device or its connection, a test script or timeout, or the platform itself.
Jump to what you are seeing
Website Down
The BitBar website or dashboard does not load for you.
- Open the page in a private window and on another network.
- Check status.bitbar.com for an active incident.
- If only your network is affected, ask IT to check the firewall.
Device Connection Failed
A test cannot connect to a device, or the device disappears from the list.
- Check the device is available in the device list, and is not already in use by another test.
- Try a different device model to see whether one model or every device is affected.
- Restart the test run, since a stuck session can hold a device.
- If devices fail for everyone, check the status page and send the device model and the time to support.
Login Failed
Sign-in is refused. Check you are using the account for your team.
- If the message says the password is wrong, reset it and check spam.
- Check your user belongs to the team that owns the project.
- Try a private window to rule out an old session.
API Error
Calls to the BitBar API fail or return an error.
- Check the status code. A 401 or 403 means the token or permission is wrong, a 429 means too many calls, and a 5xx means a platform-side problem.
- Confirm the API token has not been revoked or changed.
- Retry with a growing delay.
- Check status.bitbar.com if several calls fail together.
Test Execution Timeout
A test stops because it ran out of time. The app may be slow to start, or a test step may be waiting for something that never appears.
- Read the test log to find the step where it stopped.
- Check the app is installed and launches on the device, and that the test waits for the right element.
- Increase the timeout for that one step only if the app is genuinely slow to load.
- If every test times out on one device model, try another model and send the details to support.
Slow Performance
The dashboard or test runs are slow to start or to report.
- Try again at a quieter time of day, since shared device pools can be busier at peak times.
- Reduce the number of parallel tests while you find the cause.
- If it is slow for everyone, check the status page and tell your team lead.
Still not working?
If it still does not work, contact BitBar support through the help option in the dashboard or on bitbar.com. Have your team and project name, the device model and OS version, the test or run ID, the exact error text, and the time it started with your time zone. Never send API tokens in a support message. Live incident updates are on status.bitbar.com.
Most testing-platform problems come from a device, a test step or a timeout, and they usually clear once that one item is adjusted. The status page shows live platform incidents, so you can see whether the problem is on BitBar's side.
