Selenium, Appium, and Robots! Jason Huggins @hugs Sauce Labs
A brief history of test automation...
2004:
Google Maps, Gmail, Rails, etc...
aka
“AJAX”
“Web 2.0”
“It’s now safe to use JavaScript!”
But how do you test it?
With Selenium!
What’s Selenium?
“It’s like a robot that tests your app!”
Today:
It’s popular!
More popular than the competition!
But now...
the game has changed.

But how do you test it?
What’s Appium?
Appium is the cross-platform solution for native and hybrid mobile automation
appium.io github.com/appium/appium @AppiumDevs
Appium Philosophy
Rule 1 Test the same app you submit to the marketplace
Rule 2 Write your tests in any language, using any framework
Rule 3 Use a standard automation specification and API
Rule 4 Build a large and thriving open- source community effort
Selenium WebDriver is the standard for browser automation, with libraries in every* language
Selenium WebDriver is used every single day by thousands of developers familiar with its model
Selenium WebDriver is a W3C working draft
Appium architecture
Appium is an HTTP server that creates and handles WebDriver sessions
On iOS, Appium proxies commands to a UIAutomation script running in Instruments
On Android, Appium proxies commands to a UiAutomator test case running on the device
Appium opens the door to cross- platform mobile testing: one test, two mobile platforms
(just like how Selenium started...)
Demo!
Sample code:
Ready... var  wdSync  =  require("wd-­‐sync")    ,  assert  =  require("assert")    ,  appURL  =...
Set... //  Instantiate  a  new  wd  session var  client  =  wd.remote("localhost",  4723);    ,  ...
sync(function()  {    //  Init  the  browser    browser.init(desired); Go!    //  Type  into ...
Now for something (not) completely different
Remember when I said “like a robot”?
Well...
