How to test a "Packaged" HTML5 App

I've packaged my HTML5 app using Ripple. The result is a single, zipped file which appears to contain all my application files. I now want to run my application on a simulator or load on actual blackberry hardware for testing. I'm not sure how to do that.   But looking at the contents of the zipped file Ripple created, would this be any different than putting the program on a server and pasting the url into Ripple for simulation?

I'm confused because Ripple doesnt seem to create a system file eg a .cod file in the case of java applications.

Instead, it's just creating a zipped file that has all my application files. How can I test this? How can I see exactly how the application would behave on a blackberry?

 

Note to the BB Dev staff, the documents here https://bdsc.webapps.blackberry.com/html5/documentation/ww_testing/loading_your_app_on_a_smartphone_...

appear to be for testing a java application on a blackberry. However, they are in the section of your websites that provides instructions on how to build and test HTML5 apps.

Re: How to test a "Packaged" HTML5 App

It looks like this was my error. The packaging process did produce a number of differen cod files along with other system files.
