Mobile Automation

Query:

I'm a junior tester/QA for native mobile applications (Android & iOS). Right now I only do manual tests mostly exploratory tests and regression tests to check UI/UX, feature functionalities, etc. I use Excel files for regression tests cases which very frustrating to use and I send doc reports to developers. Now, I need some support to think of better solutions to automate most of the testing process. Any leads for this will be really grateful, and thanks.

Recommendation:

Try TestProject.io or Katalon Studio for smart record-n-playback and code-less automation, but if looking for customized frameworks then Appium is good for cross-platform testing - iOS and Android. With Appium, can maintain a single code-base for both iOS and Android platforms. There are other recorder options such as iOS native XCUITEST from Apple and Android native Espresso tools from Google, but need to integrate automation scripts with dev-code and maintain iOS and Android scripts separately.

Can refer to ‘Appium-Cookbook’ to getting started with Appium below.
