Espresso is a test framework used to write Android UI tests, and part of the Android SDK. The Espresso API encourages test authors to think in terms of what a user might do while interacting with the application - locating UI elements and interacting with them. At the same time, the framework prevents direct access to activities and views of the application because holding on to these objects and operating on them off the UI thread is a major source of test flakiness.N/A

When Apple rolled out Swift back in 2014, Objective-C was set to be replaced. Even nowadays, however, there are plenty of apps and projects that still use Objective-C, and developers are faced with the prospect of either starting again from scratch or attempting to convert them to Swift. Swiftify for Xcode is designed to automate much of the conversion process, handling the task of replacing syntax while letting you focus on other aspects of migrating your project to…

  • It is very easy to verify Images with drawable resources
  • Color Verification we can do this by referring to the same hex code as the developer team used so that it is reused.
  • Opening a desired activity without performing End-to-end flow which eventually saves time.
  • If the application is built on Android we can go testing activity with Espresso as it provides all the necessary APIs
  • Espresso is not appropriate to iOS app automation, from a business point of view we need to hire new resources for iOS testing.

For me as a picky person I never used the file convertor but for a small portion of code, it is good. With the classes that have more than one initializer, it got confusing and I had to dig to find the exact issue to fix.

  • Put in your Objective-C code, select the version of Swift language to convert, click convert. That's all!
  • Swiftify is now creating a platform to convert Objective C to #C, something that can help for different development projects platforms.
  • Swiftify offers a few free converts to try to show you the power of it. Their price for a subscription plan is really good for big projects.

Cons
  • As Espresso works on the ideal thread if the threads are not handled properly by the developing team it can lead to challenges in the execution of your tests.
  • Depends more on the developer's code
  • we cannot develop tests as individual frameworks, we share the repository with developers.
  • We need to be cautious while making changes in the tests, as we share same repository

Alternatives Considered
As our app is complete on Android Espresso is the best choice over Appium Fewer efforts in Espresso over Appium, as Espresso provides some built-in library to perform the operation. Easy to use, Espresso is very easy to understand and we can perform operations with very little code. Developers can contribute, as they have good command over Java and Kotin languages and also use Espresso for unit testing.

Swiftify tries to convert the code even if the code can not be executed in a real situation. I chose Swiftify because most of the times you just need to convert one line, one method... That of course, it is using and used by other code that you didn't add in the conversion code, but you just need to convert that for now. In this situation, Swiftify converts the code, other ones such as iSwift will report an error in the code and will not convert it.

Return on Investment
  • As it is an Open Source tool it cost-effective
  • East to use, so that you can train many new Joiners to start delivering the tasks
  • Maintainance is very low, as we depend on the developer's layout files we can reuse their elements
  • We can cover most of the scenarios which helps in the coverage of the tests

  • good ROI, saves a lot of time.
