To set up Appium with WebdriverIO, you can follow these steps:
Step 1: Install Node.js
First, you need to install Node.js on your computer.
Step 2: Install Appium
Install Appium using the npm package manager. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:
npm install -g appium
Step 3: Install WebdriverIO
Install WebdriverIO using the npm package manager. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:
npm install webdriverio --save-dev
Step 4: Set up a basic WebdriverIO configuration file
Create a new file called wdio.conf.js
in your project directory and copy the following code:
exports.config = {
//
// ====================
// Appium Configuration
// ====================
//
services: ['appium'],
appium: {
// port: 4723,
// ...
// See https://github.com/appium/appium/blob/master/docs/en/writing-running-appium/caps.md for all capabilities
},
//
// ==================
// Specify Test Files
// ==================
//
specs: [
'./test/**/*.js'
],
// ...
// ...
}
Step 5: Create a test file
Create a new folder called test
in your project directory and create a new file called example.test.js
inside it. Copy the following code into it:
const assert = require('assert');
describe('My App', () => {
it('should open the app and display the title', () => {
browser.url('myapp://');
const title = browser.getTitle();
assert.strictEqual(title, 'My App');
});
});
This test will open the "My App" app (replace "myapp://" with the correct app URL scheme for your app) and check that the title is correct.
Step 6: Run the test
Start the Appium server by running the command appium
in your terminal.
Then, run the following command in your terminal to run the test:
npx wdio wdio.conf.js
This command will start the Chrome browser and run the test.
Congratulations! You have successfully set up Appium with WebdriverIO.
