Appium Locator sample

This repository is used for demonstrating different locator strategies supported by Appium.

Prerequisites

You must have Java JDK 11 installed on your machine.

For running the tests on LambdaTest cloud platform, you must have a valid LambdaTest account. Also, you must save your username and access key in the environment variables of your .zshrc / .bash_profile. If you are on Windows, you must save your API key and secret in the System environment variables.

export LT_USERNAME=<cloud-username>
export LT_ACCESS_KEY=<cloud-key>
export LT_APP_ANDROID=<proverbial-app-cloud-url>
export LT_APP_ANDROID_2=<api-demo-app-cloud-url>
export LT_APP_IOS=<proverbial-app-ios-cloud-url>

What tests are there?

LocatorsAndroidEspressoCloudTest.java and LocatorsAndroidEspressoTest.java

This test class contains the tests for,

• testByDataMatcher
• testByViewMatcher

Class LocatorsAndroidEspressoTest.java was created because Espresso automation type is not yet supported on LambdaTest as well as many other cloud platforms. Hence, this class will execute the test on local Android emulator.

This test class contains the tests for,

• testByClassName
• testById
• testByUiSelector
• testByXpath

LocatorsIOSTest.java

This test class contains the tests for,
