## What it is
Sonic is an open-source cloud real machine platform for remote control, debugging, and automated testing of mobile devices such as Android, iOS, wearables, and in-vehicle systems. The sonic-server repository is its Java backend service, paired with sonic-agent for device connectivity.

## Use cases
- remotely control and debug android and ios devices from a browser
- run ui automation tests across a distributed device farm
- manage a shared pool of real mobile devices for a QA team
- run scheduled unattended regression tests on multiple devices at once
- debug webview content on remote devices with devtools
- capture network traffic through an online proxy during testing
- integrate mobile device testing into jenkins devops pipelines
- deploy a self-hosted alternative to stf or commercial device clouds

## When to choose
- you need a free, self-hosted mobile device farm with remote debugging
- your team wants codeless, drag-and-drop ui automation across many devices
- you need distributed device clusters across network segments or data centers
- you want jenkins integration and visual test reports out of the box

## When to avoid
- you only need simple local adb-based testing without a platform
- you require a fully managed cloud device service without self-hosting
- you cannot comply with the AGPL-3.0 license in your product
- you need desktop or browser automation rather than mobile devices
