Automation Testing With Appium
- 1. Automation testing with Appium PresentedBy: Ankur Thakur QA Consultant & Vandana Yadav Sr. QA Consultant
- 2. Our Agenda 01 Introductionof Appium 02 Basic Appium Concepts 03 Appium supported drivers 04 Demo
- 3. Introduction What is Appium Appiumis an open-source automation tool or we can call it an open-source automation framework which allows us to automate the different type of mobile applications, it could be a web application, it could be a native or hybrid application.
- 4. Why Appium ● Appiumis an open source tool. ● Appium is cross-platform. ● It supports multiple programming languages(java, python, ruby, c# and many more). ● Appium can work on the emulator as well as on the real devices.
- 5.
- 6. Session ● The sessionis a communication medium between client and Appium server ● The client can create a session by sending the post/session request to the server. ● This session req contains desired capabilities.
- 7. Desired Capabilities Desired capabilitiesare a list of keys and values sent to the Appium server for creating a new session. For example: If we want to create an android session for testing an android app, we will be required to provide these fields in the desired capabilities file.
- 8. ● platformName :Which defines on which platform we are performing testing. ● platformVersion : Operating system version is defined in this field. ● deviceName : Name of the device which we are using to run our tests on. ● app : Defines the path to the installation file i.e. APK or .IPA file from where the driver can get and install the application to the device.
- 9. Example: { "platformName": "Android", "platformVersion":"9", "deviceName": "Note 9", "app": "/path/to/my.app" }
- 10. Appium supported drivers ●Apple's XCUITest ● Apple's UI Automation ● UI Automator/UI Automator2
- 11. Apple's XCUITest ● Itis used for testing iOS applications for version 9.3 and above. ● It is used to create and run unit test cases, performance tests, and UI tests for Xcode. ● It can be also used for automating applications on iPad and tvOS as well.
- 12. Apple UI automator ●It is used for testing iOS applications for version 9.3 and lower. ● JavaScript is used to write test scripts which uses app's interface to execute the tests while the app in running in the iOS device. ● Mac OS installed system and iOS device are required for writing code and using Appium.
- 13. UI Automator/UI Automator2for Android ● UI Automator is a UI testing framework suitable for functional UI testing across system and installed apps. ● It provides a framework for testing UI elements of the applications. ● It can be used to automate the all aspects of android applications.
- 14. Appium Installation Prerequisite: ● Java ●Android SDK ● Node
- 15. ADB ● ADB standsfor Android Debug Bridge. ● It is a versatile command-line tool that lets you communicate with any connected device. ● It is used for installing and debugging apps in emulator and real devices as well.
- 16. Command for installingAPPIUM: npm install -g appium Check whether appium is installed or not: appium Verifying the Installation appium-doctor --android
- 17. appium-doctor ● Attempts todiagnose and fix common Node, iOS and Android configuration issues before starting Appium.
