Tasting

Tasting is Android library which simplifies writing UI tests and wraps Spoon screen capturing, so you can take screenshots in your tests and see them in HTML report aftewards.

Installation

Add JitPack and Spoon plugin to your root build.gradle:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        ...
        maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
        maven { url "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots" }
    }
    dependencies {
    	...
    	classpath "com.jaredsburrows:gradle-spoon-plugin:1.0.0"
    }
}

Apply Spoon plugin:

apply plugin: 'spoon'

Configure Spoon:

spoon {
    debug = true
    noAnimations = true
    grantAllPermissions = true
}

Add the dependencies you need:

androidTestImplementation 'com.github.thefuntasty:tasting:latestVersion'
androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test:runner:1.0.2'
androidTestImplementation 'com.squareup.spoon:spoon-client:1.7.1'

Usage

Implementation

1. Create BaseScenario class (extending Scenario) in androidTest/ directory
2. Override beforeSetUp() method where you can change bot settings or delete persistent data (to make every test start from the same initial state)
3. Override afterSetUp() method where you can make bot wait for app to load

open class BaseScenario : Scenario() {

    override fun beforeSetUp() {
        bot.scrollThreshold = SCROLL_THRESHOLD
        bot.viewTimeout = VIEW_TIMEOUT
        //delete persistence here
    }

    override fun afterSetUp() {
        bot.waitForId(bot.getViewId(R.id.login_button), LAUNCH_TIMEOUT)
    }
}

4. Create eg. AccountScenario class (extending BaseScenario) which will contain all tests regarding user account

@RunWith(AndroidJUnit4::class)
class SampleScenario : BaseScenario() {

    @Test
    fun login() {
        bot.writeById(bot.getViewId(R.id.login_field), bot.email)
        bot.writeById(bot.getViewId(R.id.password_field), bot.getRandomString(21))
        bot.tapById(bot.getViewId(R.id.login_button))

        bot.presentById(bot.getViewId(R.id.login_check))
        bot.takeScreenshot("loggedIn")
    }
}

Running tests

1. Open terminal at your Android project directory
2. Run ./gradlew spoonDebug (or specify any other build variant eg. spoonClient)

Checking results

1. You can see test progress and result in terminal window

2. After finishing all tests, interactive HTML test report is generated in your project directory (build/spoon-output/...), including screenshots you took with bot.takeScreenshot() method. Screenshot is also taken automatically on test failure, so you can find out what went wrong easier.
