The Power Behind the Scenes

The TestBot Mobile App Test Agent intelligently harnesses the power of Appium, a widely adopted open-source automation framework for testing mobile applications. Think of Appium as the robust engine under the hood. It provides the foundational capabilities to interact with your mobile app's UI elements across both Android and iOS platforms, mimicking real user interactions like tapping buttons, entering text, and swiping gestures.

Flexibility in Test Programming

One of the key strengths of TestBot is its flexibility in accommodating different testing skill sets and preferences. The Mobile App Test Agent can be invoked seamlessly from all three primary test programming modes offered by TestBot:

  • Graphical Test Case Development: For testers who prefer a visual approach, TestBot provides an intuitive graphical interface. You can design mobile app test cases by simply dragging and dropping actions, defining locators for UI elements, and setting verification points. The Mobile App Test Agent interprets these graphical workflows and translates them into executable automation scripts. This significantly lowers the barrier to entry for automation and allows business analysts and manual testers to contribute to the automation effort.
  • Python-Based Test Automation: For testers comfortable with scripting, TestBot offers full support for Python. You can write powerful and flexible mobile app test cases using Python and interact with the Mobile App Test Agent through a well-defined API. This allows for more complex test logic and integration with other testing tools and frameworks. The agent handles the execution of your Python scripts on the target mobile devices via Appium.
  • Python
    # Example Python test case in TestBot
    
    from testbot.mobile import MobileAppAgent
    
    
    agent = MobileAppAgent()
    
    
    def test_login_success():
    
        agent.find_element_by_id("username_field").send_keys("valid_user")
    
        agent.find_element_by_id("password_field").send_keys("valid_password")
    
        agent.click_element_by_id("login_button")
    
        assert agent.is_element_visible_by_text("Welcome")
    
  • Java-Based Test Automation: For teams with Java expertise, TestBot also provides a robust Java SDK. You can develop scalable and maintainable mobile app test cases using Java and leverage the Mobile App Test Agent to execute them on Android and iOS devices. This provides a familiar environment for experienced automation engineers and facilitates integration with existing Java-based testing infrastructure.
  • Java
    // Example Java test case in TestBot
    
    import com.embien.testbot.mobile.MobileAppAgent;
    
    import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
    
    import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.*;
    
    public class LoginTest {
    
        MobileAppAgent agent = new MobileAppAgent();
    
    
        @Test
    
        void testLoginSuccess() {
    
            agent.findElementById("username_field").sendKeys("valid_user");
    
            agent.findElementById("password_field").sendKeys("valid_password");
    
            agent.clickElementById("login_button");
    
            assertTrue(agent.isElementVisibleByText("Welcome"));
    
        }
    
    }
    

Jumpstart Your Testing: Pre-installed Standard Test Cases

To further accelerate your mobile app testing efforts, TestBot comes equipped with a library of pre-installed standard test cases covering common mobile app functionalities. These ready-to-use test cases can be easily customized and extended to fit the specific needs of your application. Some of the standard test cases available include:

  • Login/Logout Tests: Verify the successful login and logout functionalities with valid and invalid credentials.
  • Sign-up Tests: Ensure the user registration process is smooth and handles different scenarios, including valid and invalid input.
  • Change Password Tests: Validate the functionality for users to securely change their account passwords.
  • Update Profile Tests: Verify the ability of users to update their profile information accurately.
  • Basic UI Element Interaction Tests: Cover fundamental interactions like tapping buttons, entering text in fields, and scrolling through lists.
