Tutorial To Run Your First Test On LambdaTest

In this topic, you will learn how to configure and run your Java Cucumber automation testing scripts with Appium on LambdaTest Real Device Cloud platform.

Objective

By the end of this topic, you will be able to:

  1. Run a sample automation script of Java Cucumber for application testing with Appium on LambdaTest.
  2. Learn more about Desired Capabilities for Appium testing.
  3. Explore advanced features of LambdaTest.

:::tip Sample repo

All the code samples in this documentation can be found on LambdaTest's Github Repository. You can either download or clone the repository to quickly run your tests. <img loading="lazy" src={require('../assets/images/icons/github.png').default} alt="Image" className="doc_img"/> View on GitHub

:::

Pre-requisites

Before you start performing App automation testing with Appium, please make sure:

  • You have access to LambdaTest username and accessKey. If you have not registered yet, you can do the same by visiting our website. You will be able to access the credentials in the LambdaTest Profile
  • Ensure you have the Java client library installed for Selenium and Appium.
  • Install the latest Java development environment i.e. JDK 8 or higher. We recommend using the < JDK 11 version.
  • Download and install Maven following the steps from the official website. Maven can also be installed easily on Linux/MacOS using Homebrew package manager.

Run your first test

1. Upload your application

Upload your iOS application (.ipa file) or android application (.apk file) to the LambdaTest servers using our REST API. You need to provide your Username and AccessKey in the format Username:AccessKey in the cURL command for authentication. Make sure to add the path of the appFile in the cURL request. Here is an example cURL request to upload your app using our REST API:

Using App File from System:

{`curl -u "${ YOUR_LAMBDATEST_USERNAME()}:${ YOUR_LAMBDATEST_ACCESS_KEY()}" -X POST "https://manual-api.lambdatest.com/app/upload/realDevice" -F "appFile=@"/Users/macuser/Downloads/proverbial_android.apk"" -F "name="proverbial_app"" `}

Using App URL:

{`curl -u "${ YOUR_LAMBDATEST_USERNAME()}:${ YOUR_LAMBDATEST_ACCESS_KEY()}" -X POST "https://manual-api.lambdatest.com/app/upload/realDevice" -F "url=:https://prod-mobile-artefacts.lambdatest.com/assets/docs/proverbial_android.apk" -F "name=Proverbial_App" `}

:::tip

  • If you do not have any .apk or .ipa file, you can run your sample tests on LambdaTest by using our sample 🔗 Android app or sample 🔗 iOS app.

  • Response of above cURL will be a JSON object containing the APP_URL of the format - lt://APP123456789123456789 and will be used in the next step.

:::

2. Clone the sample project

Clone the LambdaTest’s 🔗 LT-appium-java-cucumber repository and navigate to the code directory as shown below:

git clone https://github.com/LambdaTest/LT-appium-java-cucumber
cd LT-appium-java-cucumber

3. Set up your authentication

Make sure you have your LambdaTest credentials with you to run test automation scripts on LambdaTest. To obtain your access credentials, purchase a plan or access the Automation Dashboard. Then, set LambdaTest Username and Access Key in environment variables with following commands.

{`export LT_USERNAME=${ YOUR_LAMBDATEST_USERNAME()} \\ export LT_ACCESS_KEY=${ YOUR_LAMBDATEST_ACCESS_KEY()}`}
{`set LT_USERNAME=${ YOUR_LAMBDATEST_USERNAME()} \` set LT_ACCESS_KEY=${ YOUR_LAMBDATEST_ACCESS_KEY()}`}

4. Write your automation script

An automation script for the sample application available above has been provided here. Ensure to update the APP_URL, username and accessKey in the code scripts before running the tests.

    }
    
    @BeforeMethod(alwaysRun = true)
    @Parameters({ "deviceName", "platformVersion", "platformName" })
    public void setUpClass(String deviceName, String platformVersion, String platformName) throws Exception {

    		String username = System.getenv("LT_USERNAME") == null ? "YOUR_LT_USERNAME" : System.getenv("LT_USERNAME");      //Enter your LambdaTest username at the place of YOUR_LT_USERNAME

    		String gridURL = "https://" + username + ":" + accesskey + "@mobile-hub.lambdatest.com/wd/hub";
    		System.out.println(gridURL);
    		connection = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL(gridURL), capability);
    		System.out.println(capability);
    		System.out.println(connection.getSessionId());
}


    @DataProvider
    public Object[][] features() {
        return testNGCucumberRunner.provideScenarios();
    }
 
    @AfterClass(alwaysRun = true)
    public void tearDownClass() {
        testNGCucumberRunner.finish();
    }
}

Configure the test capabilities

You can update your custom capabilities in test scripts. In this sample project, we are passing platform name, platform version, device name and app url (generated earlier) along with other capabilities like build name and test name via capabilities object. Checkout single.xml and parallel.xml to change the device capabilities. The capabilities object in the sample code are defined as:

	DesiredCapabilities capability = new DesiredCapabilities();    		

            //you can edit the following three caps in single.xml or parallel.xml
            capability.setCapability("platformName", platformName);
	        capability.setCapability("deviceName", deviceName);
	        capability.setCapability("platformVersion",platformVersion);
    		    		
    		capability.setCapability("build", "Native App automate Demo");
       		capability.setCapability("test", "Test Parallel");    		
	        capability.setCapability("isRealMobile", true);

            capability.setCapability("app","lt://proverbial-android");     //Enter the app url here
            capability.setCapability("network", false);
    		capability.setCapability("video", true);
    		capability.setCapability("console", true);
    		capability.setCapability("visual", true);

:::info Note

:::

5. Execute your test case

  1. Run the following commands to install the required dependencies:
mvn clean install
  1. The tests can be executed in the terminal using the following command:
mvn test -D suite=single.xml
mvn test -D suite=parallel.xml

:::info Your test results would be displayed on the test console (or command-line interface if you are using terminal/cmd) and on the 🔗 LambdaTest App Automation Dashboard. :::
