Talk Description
Web automation frameworks have evolved over time and have become very mature over the years. But the same is not true for mobile apps.
Did you want to kick start your journey into mobile test automation? Or have you found it harder to choose the right one for your team? Let's get started!
Why these 4? The frameworks I have chosen have been used in high profile projects that I’ve worked on with so many challenges. So I’m speaking from real experience, rather than just the theory behind it.
Also, all 4 frameworks I’ll be showcasing are well-documented and well-supported open-source code-based solutions, something that you can use in a software development team right away without any blockers (like money, approvals, etc).
Framework #1: Appium (iOS and android)
We will be using the same workflow for all the test framework demos. We will write a UI test using appium for the chosen workflow.
Appium is a very commonly used test automation framework in the mobile space. It is a very good tool to get started on your own to create UI tests for mobile. These tests can be written in a number of different languages including Java, Ruby, Python, PHP, JavaScript, and C#.talk
What you’ll learn
By the end of this talk, you'll be able to:
- What does it take to write an appium based UI test for android and iOS?
- In what scenarios should you use appium?
- When not to use appium?
- What type of teams can benefit in choosing a framework like appium?
- What level of skill set is required to write a test using appium (so you can go and prepare yourself for it).
