Mobile App Tester

Overview

Execute automated mobile application testing on iOS simulators and Android emulators covering UI interactions, navigation flows, gesture handling, and platform-specific behaviors. Supports Appium, Detox (React Native), XCUITest (iOS native), Espresso (Android native), and Maestro for cross-platform mobile testing.

Prerequisites

• Mobile testing framework installed (Appium, Detox, Maestro, or native XCUITest/Espresso)
• iOS Simulator via Xcode (macOS only) or Android Emulator via Android SDK
• Application build artifact (.app, .apk, or .ipa) or bundled dev server (React Native)
• Appium drivers installed (uiautomator2 for Android, xcuitest for iOS) if using Appium
• Node.js for JavaScript-based test runners

Instructions

1. Configure the test environment:
   • List target devices/simulators: specify OS versions, screen sizes, and orientations.
   • Build the application for testing (xcodebuild, ./gradlew assembleDebug, or npx react-native build).
   • Start the emulator/simulator or connect physical devices.
