Some ad providers ( Facebook / Mopub) make a distinction between Mrec and banner, but in the test suite it always try to load them as banner making the test fail because they expect an mrec.

Hello there,

Thanks for reaching out to us. Can you please share the Ad unit Id and code snippet of the implementation using "Reply Privately to Author" for us to test it on our end as well?

Steps to reproduce : 

- Create a banner ad unit in AdMob
- Create a Medium Rectangle ad unit in facebook or mopub
- Link them in mediation to the admob ad unit
- Launch the Mediation test suite select the unit ID
- Click on the facebook provider and Load Ad.

In log cat you'll see a message saying that it's trying to load a medium rectangle in a banner format which isn't supported.

Admob doesn't make the distinction between medium rectangle and banner but Facebook does.

Solution : Let us choose the banner format in the test suite for banner ad units instead of defaulting to small banner

Hello there,

You will have to configure the MREC Banner type directly via FAN and then try to mediate with our SDK and then it will work. Mediation Suite does consider this separately and you would be able to request this as soon as you have this configured this via FAN.

That's not a configuration issue...

In adMob :
- Unit name : Test ADMOB
- Unit type : Banner

In FAN : 
- Unit name : Test FB
- Unit type : MREC

In the test suite if I test my unit : Test ADMOB it will only display a small banner. And the Facebook test won't work because it expects an MREC.

What's so complicated to understand ?

Hello there,

Please share your Ad unit Ids so that we can test it and see what the issue is. I'm not seeing any issue with our Ad unit Id.
