- 7. Why ? and Benefits Problems Faced during automation? Testing framework is complex! Tests are flaky! Tests are slow and lasts hours! Not easy to write tests!
- 8. Why ? and Benefits(contd.) - Easy - Fast and Reliable - Backward Compatibility(Froyo is there) - Automatic Synchronization - Supports testing activities outside apps - Test Coverage
- 9. HOW ?? Dude It’s easy !! Dude, I can’t see !!
- 10. Writing Espresso Tests Espresso tests are based on a formula:-
- 11. onView(ViewMatcher) .perform(ViewAction) .check(ViewAssertion); Revealing The Formula !! Find Something Do Something Check Something
- 12. onView(withId(R.id.add_expense)) //ViewMatcher .perform(click()) // ViewAction .check(matches(withText("Add Expense"))); //Assertion Example

Entry point to interactions with views is via :- • onView(Matcher<View>) • onData(Matcher<? extends Object>) ViewMatcher - allows you to locate a view in the current view hierarchy Matcher: • withId() • withText() • isDisplayed() • withParent() • etc ViewMatcher Matches on User Properties Matches on UI properties Matches on with Hierarchy
- 18. ViewActions - allows you to interact with views • perform(ViewAction… viewActions) ViewAction: • click() • doubleClick() • longClick() • scrollTo() • swipeLeft() • clearText() • typeText() • etc ViewActions Click/Press Action Gestures Text centric Actions
- 19. ViewAssertions – allows you to assert the state of a view. • checks(ViewAssertion viewAssert) ViewAssertion: • matches(Matcher) • doesNotExist() ViewAssertions
