在移动应用程序和 Web 浏览器上并行运行测试

Question

Help me guys. I need to run the e2e tests in parallel on mobile app and on the web browser, then make some changes on mobile app and check the changes on the web browser and vise versa several times. I plan to use webdriver.io + appium(as a service for webdriver.io). But if exists other frameworks or tools for this, I can use them.

Case, for example:

1. Open the web page on the browser and add some text to input field(or attach the file).
2. Open the mobile native app on mobile emulator, synchronize the data(app functionality) and check entered text.
3. Enter text on mobile and save the changes. Push 'Synchronize' button(or wait 5 minutes).
4. Switch to the opened(step 1) web page and check the entered text(or picture).
5. Repeat steps 1-4 several times.

Answer 1

You can use wdio multi remote to achieve this. Your config should look like below and you can access the app with the appiumDriver.doSomething() and browser with chromeBrower.doSomething() in steps:

capabilities: {
      appiumDriver: {
         port: 4723,
         capabilities: {
            // maxInstances: 1,
            platformName: 'Android',
            deviceName: 'Pixel_4',
            app: join( process.cwd(), '<path to apk>' ),
            autoGrantPermissions: true,
            appWaitActivity: '*',
            fullContextList: true,
            webviewConnectTimeout: 10000,
         },
      },
      chromeBrowser: {
         port: 4444,
         capabilities: {
            browserName: 'chrome'
         },
      },
   },
