# Set Up Roku Remote Control for AIQ Testing

Use this guidance when AIQ tests need to control or validate a Roku-based application flow. Keep device setup consistent so remote-control actions are repeatable across test runs.

## Setup checklist

- Confirm the Roku device and test controller are on the required network and can reach each other.
- Verify the app build, channel, or sideloaded package before running the scenario.
- Use a dedicated test account and reset application state when needed.
- Document the remote-control commands used by the scenario and the expected screen after each action.
- Capture device logs or screenshots when troubleshooting navigation failures.

## Validation workflow

1. Pair or configure the remote-control method for the target device.
2. Run a short navigation smoke test.
3. Confirm that AIQ can detect the expected screen or application response.
4. Record any network, pairing, or device-state requirements in the test notes.
