This is a generic Page Object Model which will fit for both Mobile & Web platforms. This will serve the benefits to both native android, ios and web platforms with single framework.
We often tend to create different test frameworks for different platforms and it is very difficlut for anyone to serve all platform needs in one test automation framework.
Be it web app or mobile app (ios & android) or you have to automate both the platforms, however you need single test automation framework, This is the solution for you.
As part of this framework I have taken Wordpress mobile app for Android & iOS mobile platforms, It's web application for web application automation. In order to create the framework, I have used below libraries/technologies.
- Appium
- Selenium WebDriver
- Java
- Cucumber-java, Cucumber-junit
- jUnit
- Log4j
- Gradle
This framework is built in BDD style using cucumber framework and scenarios will be run using cucumber-junit runners.
We have 3 different runners for 3 platforms and here is how we tag those scenarios and execute them.
Scenarios tagging
@web - for web tests
@android - for android tests
@ios - for ios tests
@ignore - to ignore certain tests
Execution
gradle clean test -Pplatform=
For eg. If it is android platform, the command is
gradle clean test -Pplatform=android
- Proper logging at each step
- Parallel test execution
- Integration with CI i.e. Jenkins (or) Travis (or) Circle CI (or) Go
- Recording of test execution
- Detailed cucumber profiling
- Gradle tasking (Created one task for running the tests, few tasks are pending)
- Scroll up/down
- Scroll to particular elements
- Swipe left/right
Moreover will incorporate if anything pops up in mind, going forward. Raise an issue, uf you face any issues with this. Raise a Pull Request, if you see and fix any issues.
