This document provides an overview of building an automation solution using Appium. It discusses tools for mobile test automation, common pain points in testing, tips for running tests on real devices versus emulators, integrating mobile testing into a CI/CD pipeline, and using cloud services for testing. Examples are provided for testing a QR code scanning app and verifying call quality between two devices. Links to additional Appium documentation and cloud testing services are also included.

- 25. Tips and Tricks
- 26. Android Connection via wi-fi NOTE: DEVICE HAS TO BE IN THE SAME NETWORK AS YOUR COMPUTER 26 • Connect your device via usb cable • Get an ip address of your Android device • Run in console: “adb tcpip 5555” • Run in console: “adb connect your_phone_ip” • Remove usb and run in console “adb devices” to make sure your device is connected
- 27. NOTE: DEVICE HAS TO BE IN THE SAME NETWORK AS YOUR COMPUTER 27 iPhone connection via wi-fi • Connect your device via usb cable • Open your project in xcode • Open devices list and find your device • Click on the checkbox : "Connect via network“ • Once done (*You'll see a globe icon in front of device), remove the usb

- 29. Case Study Application to scan QR Codes Challenges • Scanner supposed to be connected to a real device and use it’s only one port • Smoke suite needs to be automated Solution based on Appium • Connect real android device using Wi-Fi and run tests as usual 29
- 30. Case Study Call quality verification Challenges • Make a call from one phone to the other • Pass some voice (audio file) from one phone and record it on the other side Solution based on Appium • Use two real devices: one that enters the phone number and the second that answers • Use custom cable and VLC command line to record the audio from the second device 30
- 31. Tips and Tricks for iOS Real device Certificates To be able to run tests on iOS real device you need to have: • Apple’s developer account • Certificate installed on your Mac machine • Provision profile for an application you want to test • Device should be included into provision profile 31
- 32. Real Device vs Emulator/Simulator
- 33. Real devices Advantages Disadvantages 33 Good tests run time Easy to setup (Android) Stable long time testing on the same device Available: GPS, Network, Bluetooth, Camera, Gyroscope The real devices are costly compared to the emulator/simulators Maintenance of real devices (OS updates, reboots, etc.)
- 34. Emulators/Simulators 34 Advantages Disadvantages Mostly free Easy to setup Easy to debug Can run many configurations Sometimes behavior can be different on real device and Emulator It is slower as compared to actual devices No possibility to do performance testing Not all functions are present
- 35. What’s my choice? Real Device Testing = Real Results 35 Real Devices Emulators/Simulators Should be used on the most projects with Native/Hybrid applications. Acceptable for Mobile Web Applications testing Acceptable during the PoC stage Need to run under the many configurations
- 36. Cloud Services
- 38. Advantages of Cloud Services 38 • Don’t spend any time for environment setup and support • Stable environment and test results • On some cloud services tests run faster than locally • Much easier and faster to setup multithreading • You can use bunch of different configurations • Mostly good support and help with problems solving
