Mobile Automation

1. Business Requirement

The mobile application is developed by React-native framework (v.7), simulating a few small businesses:

Phase 1: Checkout business

The Check-out process has 3 serial steps

• Personal information
• Payment information
• Summary information

Noting that the date-of-birth field has different format in Android and iOS.

Phase 2: Notification (TBD)

2. Setup

The automation framework is using:

• Maven lib: builder tool
• TestNg: test unit framework
• Appium: Mobile UI (XCUITest and UiAutomator2 drivers) attaching wait-for add-on.
• Allure: Reporter (have to install Allure CLI to generate report)

The test script is following Page-Object-Model

The list of test cases are placed in xml file under test/source/*.xml.

3. Execution

Phase 1: Run test-suite connecting to local-appium server

Phase 1.1: Programmatically start appium server through MobileBaseTest

The script is run for android and ios platforms (2 simulator/emulator at the same time).

At root folder, running command: mvn clean test -Dsuite="mobile-testng"

Phase 1.2: Run test-suite with appium-device-farm => all test execution live-streaming to device-farm dashboard

• Please switch to branch config/appium_config_file

Phase 2: Run test-suite connecting to remote-appium server

• Please switch to branch config/remote_driver

Phase 3: Test distribution (TBD)

• Please switch to branch test_distribution So far implement (basically) for iOS simulators. Related to Android emulators, I am facing issues at AppiumTestDistribution/AppiumTestDistribution#1222
