Appium Android and iOS UI testing

This projects is a demo testing framework for validating Android and iOS apps. It uses Cucumber and TestNG for structuring and executing tests. Also, it’s configured with Allure reporting framework.

The key feature of this demo is that it can use device, emulator or cloud provider to run tests. The following cloud providers are supported:

• BrowserStack
• Kobiton
• SauceLabs
• Perfecto

TODO: AWS Device Farm

See details for configuring providers below

Required Tools

1. JDK8
2. Maven

Basic steps for running tests on device or emulator

1. Update/add profile to profiles node of pom.xml

        <profile>
            <id>$DEVICE_PROFILE_NAME</id>
            <properties>
                <provider.name>local</provider.name>
                <device.type>device|emulator</device.type>
                <device.platform.name>android|ios</device.platform.name>
                <device.platform.version>$ANDROID_VERSION</device.platform.version>
                <device.name>$DEVICE_NAME</device.name>
            </properties>
        </profile>

   For iOS device you also need to specify device.udid
2. Run tests

   mvn clean test -P$DEVICE_PROFILE_NAME -P$SUITE_PROFILE_NAME

Generate report

You can generate a report using one of the following command:

• mvn allure:serve

  Report will be generated into temp folder. Web server with results will start.

• mvn allure:report

  Report will be generated tо directory: target/site/allure-maven/index.html

Running tests with cloud providers

1. Signup to cloud device farm service and get your username and access key.
   Set them to $USERNAME, $ACCESS_KEY
2. Upload your app. Set path or ID, provided by cloud provider to $APP env variable
3. Create new device provile in pom.xml

    <profile>
        <id>$PROVIDER-$PLATFORM-$DEVICE_TYPE</id>
        <properties>
            <provider.name>$PROVIDER</provider.name>
            <device.type>$DEVICE_TYPE</device.type>
            <device.platform.name>$PLATFORM</device.platform.name>
            <device.platform.version>$VERSION</device.platform.version>
            <device.name>$DEVICE_NAME</device.name>
        </properties>
    </profile>

   where
   • $PROVIDER - local, browserstack, saucelabs, kobiton or perfecto
   • $PLATFORM - ios or android
   • $DEVICE_TYPE - device or emulator
   • $VERSION - OS version (i.e “7.0” or “12.4”)
   • $DEVICE_NAME - name of emulator or device
4. Run tests

    USERNAME=... ACCESS_KEY=... APP=...  mvn clean test -P$DEVICE_PROVILE -Psuite-full
