How to start

## Run tests ### Unit Tests Run unit tests which check each method and command, URL, using the webmock.

bash $ bundle install $ bundle exec parallel_test test/unit/

or

bash $ bundle install $ bundle exec rake test:unit

Functional Tests

Run functional tests which require the Appium server and real device, Simulator/Emulator.

  • Start Appium server (Appium 2.0 base) bash $ npm install --location=global appium $ appium driver install xcuitest $ appium driver install uiautomator2 # etc $ appium --base-path=/wd/hub --relaxed-security # To run all tests in local

  • Conduct tests bash $ bundle install $ rake test:func:android # Andorid, uiautomator2 $ APPIUM_DRIVER=espresso rake test:func:android # Andorid, uiautomator2 $ rake test:func:ios # iOS

Real device for iOS

  • You should pre-install UICatalog in iOS with a particular bundleId
    • Set the bundleId instead of app in test/test_helper#ios

```bash # Create derivedDataPath in “/tmp/#org_id” and reuse xctestrun in the directory $ REAL=true BUNDLE_ID=’target-bundleid’ WDA_BUNDLEID=”ios.appium.WebDriverAgentRunner” ORG_ID=XXXXXXX rake test:func:ios

Run with xcconfig file. The template is in ‘test/functional/ios/temp.xcconfig’

# The PROVISIONING_PROFILE is in ‘~/Library/MobileDevice/Provisioning\ Profiles/’ $ REAL=true XCODE_CONFIG_FILE=’/path/to/xcconfig’ ORG_ID=XXXXXXX rake test:func:ios ```

Run parallel tests with parallel_tests gem

#### Android

# Generate 3 emulators. Running 3 emulators require much machine power. # It requires an image which is for Google Play and x86 CPU architecture's image. $ bundle exec rake android:gen_device $ PARALLEL=1 bundle exec parallel_test test/functional/android -n 3

iOS
  • Create iPhone simulators named iPhone Xs Max- 8100 and iPhone Xs Max - 8101
  • Run iOS functional tests with below command

$ PARALLEL=1 bundle exec parallel_test test/functional/ios -n 2

CI

  • Runs on CI environment (on Azure)
    • Non IGNORE_VERSION_SKIP or IGNORE_VERSION_SKIP=true runs all tests ignoring skip them by Appium versions
    • IGNORE_VERSION_SKIP=false skips the following tests if the Appium version is lower than the requirement

$ IGNORE_VERSION_SKIP=true CI=true bundle exec rake test:func:android

Run a test case

  1. Launch the Appium server locally.
  2. Run the following script.

  • test.rb ```ruby require ‘rubygems’ require ‘appium_lib_core’

    opts = { capabilities: { # Append capabilities platformName: ‘ios’, platformVersion: ‘11.0’, deviceName: ‘iPhone Simulator’, # app: ‘/path/to/MyiOS.app’, # Without ‘app’ capability, an appium session starts with the home screen automationName: ‘XCUITest’ }, appium_lib: { wait: 30 } } @core = Appium::Core.for(opts) # create a core driver with opts @driver = @core.start_driver

    # Launch iPhone Simulator and MyiOS.app @driver.find_element(:accessibility_id, ‘some accessibility’) # find an element ```

  • Run the script ```bash # shell 1 $ appium –log-level warn:error # show only warning and error logs

    # shell 2 $ ruby test.rb ```

Appium::Core.for documentation has more example to build a new driver instance.

More examples are in test/functional

As of version 5.8.0, the client can attach to an existing session. The main purpose is for debugging.

ruby # @driver is the driver instance of an existing session attached_driver = ::Appium::Core::Driver.attach_to @driver.session_id, url: 'http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub', automation_name: 'XCUITest', platform_name: 'ios' assert attached_driver.session_id == @driver.session_id attached_driver.page_source

Capabilities

Read Appium/Core/Driver to catch up with available capabilities. Capabilities affect only ruby_lib is Appium/Core/Options.

Gives custom listener

An example to define a customer listener with Selenium::WebDriver::Support::AbstractEventListener

ruby class CustomListener < ::Selenium::WebDriver::Support::AbstractEventListener // something end capabilities: { platformName: :ios, platformVersion: '11.0', deviceName: 'iPhone Simulator', automationName: 'XCUITest', app: '/path/to/MyiOS.app' }, appium_lib: { listener: CustomListener.new } @core = Appium::Core.for capabilities: capabilities, appium_lib: appium_lib @core.start_driver
