tc_mobile_wdio_demo

This is a Cucumber based sample test suite and framework utilizing the TestCentricity™ For Apps gem and a screen-object model architecture for native mobile app functional testing of the WebDriverIO Demo app. The tests in this example project are designed to support testing of version 1.0.8 of the WebDriverIO Demo app.

WebDriverIO Demo app

The primary purpose of this example test suite and framework is to demonstrate how to implement a cross platform automated testing solution for an iOS and Android mobile app using Cucumber, Appium, and the TestCentricity™ For Apps gem. This test suite includes scenarios for interacting with and validating the following functionality:

  • Switches
  • Listviews
  • Alert modals
  • Carousel lists
  • Swipe gestures
  • UI element drag and drop actions

Gem Dependencies:

cucumber Gem Version

testcentricity_apps Gem Version

Prerequisites to running tests:

The tc_mobile_wdio_demo test automation project supports running tests on iOS and Android simulators or physical devices. The capabilities profiles for running tests against an iPhone or Android phone are stored in the test data asset file located at /config/test_data/data.yml.

📁 tc_mobile_wdio_demo
 ├── 📁 config
 │   ├── 📁 test_data
 │   │    └── 📄 data.yml
 │   └── 📄 cucumber.yml
 ├── 📁 doc
 └── 📁 features

In order for Cucumber to execute the features and scenarios in the tc_mobile_wdio_demo test automation project, you must install Appium, XCode, the iOS version-specific device simulators for XCode, Android Studio, and the desired Android version-specific virtual device emulators. The capabilities profiles in data.ymlfile are currently set to the following:

Mobile device OS version ('appium:platformVersion':) Device name ('appium:deviceName': / 'appium:avd':)
:iPhone '17.2' 'iPhone 13 Pro Max'
:android_phone '12.0' 'Pixel_5_API_31'

If you prefer to run tests against mobile devices using simulators other than the ones already preconfigured, you can edit the capabilities profiles in the data.yml file. Refer to section 10.2 (Connecting to Locally Hosted Simulators or Physical Devices) of the TestCentricity For Apps gem documentation for information on specifying the desired capabilities for mobile simulators and devices.

You will also need to download version 1.0.8 of the iOS (.app and/or .ipa) and Android (.apk) apps to your workstation, and then edit the capabilities profiles in the data.yml file to change file path value associated with the corresponding :'appium:app': keys to the actual file paths where the downloaded app files reside locally.

Instructions for running tests

In order for Cucumber to execute features or scenarios from the tc_mobile_wdio_demo test automation project, thetest_context must be specified in the Cucumber command line at runtime. There are 4 test execution profiles, or test_context, that are supported (they are defined in cucumber.yml):

  • bat_ios - Run Build Acceptance Test (BAT) suite on iPhone
  • bat_android - Run Build Acceptance Test (BAT) suite on Android Phone
  • regress_ios - Run full regression test suite on iPhone
  • regress_android - Run full regression test suite on Android Phone

  1. To run the Cucumber BAT suite on an iPhone simulator, execute the following command in the Terminal:

     bundle exec cucumber -p bat_ios

    ℹ️ NOTE:

    • To have Cucumber generate HTML formatted test results, append -p report to the above command line arguments.

    For example, to execute the BAT suite on an iPhone with test results being logged to an HTML test results file, execute the following command in the Terminal:

     bundle exec cucumber -p bat_ios -p report

    To execute the regression test suite on an Android phone, execute the following command in the Terminal:

     bundle exec cucumber -p regress_android

    If you are running locally hosted mobile tests using version 1.x of Appium server, you must include -p appium_1x in your command line:

     bundle exec cucumber -p regress_ios -p appium_1x

    ℹ️ NOTE:

    • Appium will automatically be started prior to tests being run on locally hosted simulators.

  2. As the Cucumber tests are executing, the Terminal will display the lines of each feature file and scenario as they run in real-time.

  3. Upon completion of test execution, the Terminal will display the final test results.

  4. If you specified in the command line that HTML formatted test results should be generated (-p report), you can view them by opening the reports folder in the tc_mobile_wdio_demo project directory, and selecting the test_results.html file. Right-clicking on the test_results.html file will display a popup menu. Select the Open in Browser menu item, and then select a web browser from the popup sub menu that appears. The formatted test results will open in the web browser that you selected.
