Month: 2025-07 — Performance-review ready monthly summary for mobile-dev-inc/maestro. Key features delivered: (1) PostHog analytics integration for Maestro CLI with opt-out, replacing the previous custom endpoint; added dependency on the PostHog Java SDK and exposed an environment variable to opt out. (2) New --test-output-dir flag for Maestro CLI to designate a dedicated directory for test artifacts (e.g., screenshots). Major bugs fixed: none reported this month. Overall impact: improved observability with privacy controls and better test artifact management, enabling faster debugging and more reproducible releases. Technologies/skills demonstrated: analytics integration using a Java SDK, CLI enhancements, environment-variable support, and artifact management.

May 1, 2025

May 2025 monthly summary for mobile-dev-inc/maestro. Focused on delivering a feature to enable automated workflows with non-interactive device selection. Implemented the --device-index flag for the PrintHierarchyCommand to select a device by index, passing the index through to the device selection logic and preserving existing interactive and single-device auto-selection flows when the flag is not provided. This reduces CI and script setup friction and improves test reliability.
