How to test the inbuilt android apks like camera, calculator, gallery using robotium?
I have tried but am getting error like does not have a signature matching the target. Is it possible to test the inbuilt apks using robotium?
Definitely no. For testing native Android apps try to use uiatomator test framework. Here is the link: http://developer.android.com/tools/testing-support-library/index.html#UIAutomator

Can I test flutter app (for example in apk) using WebdriverIO?
I saw there is a flutter driver for Appium. Is it supported with WebriverIO as well? How is it handled?
Yes you can. You have to use Appium Automation to interact with your Flutter mobile app.
Setup your own WebdriverIO Appium project, or start from a featured boilerplate, as such.
Integrate the appium-flutter-driver into your project and start using it inside your test cases.
LE: Alternatively, you can try SauceLab's Appium-Flutter-Driver implementation using WebdriverIO. See it here.
You can find multiple examples online for configurations. A simple Google search even gives you a full video tutorial on how to setup everything.
I want to learn how to test mobile games using Appium, so i found it could be done using Image Recognition.
I found this https://bitbar.com/appium-tip-27-using-appium-for-mobile-game-testing/
I'm truly stuck in it
couldn't understand what i should do or add in Eclipse to test mobile games using Appium.
If anyone know how to test mobile game using Appium rather than Image Recognition please tell me.
Please, if any one have any tutorial or a clear steps of mobile game testing automation tell me.
Appium is not a good option (unless you are ok with image recognition approach) to test mobile games. Appium is using native test frameworks like UIAutomator, Espresso (Android) and XCUITest (iOS), that are basically implemented to test apps build with native SDK
Mobile games are mostly build with engines like Unreal, Unity, Corona ,etc. that have no relation to native SDK and thus cannot be tested with native test frameworks without additional tweaks.
Basically following issues to be addressed and add support for:
find elements
check action occurring in game
check UI rendered
properly
There are some projects where engineers are trying to use Appium with some additional ports, e.g. Unity-Appium, but there is definitely nothing like Appium or Selenium that you can take and use like silver bullet.
Check the engine your game is based on and search for possible test frameworks.
I want to test my IOS,Android and hybrid apps on various virtual devices. Please suggest me a good tool that can perform these functions.
We currently use Genymotion for testing with Android and XCode's simulator for iOS. These will allow you test a wide range of iOS/Android devices.
If you are looking for one tool to test both iOS and Android I believe Visual Studio's Xamarin supports both, there is also a browser based solution with appetize.io. I haven't used either of those so can't comment on if they are any good.
You can make use of chrome developer toolbar it has most of the device options like device horizontal/Vertical, Zoom
You get the different versions along with the different screen sizes in the simulator which you are working.
Eg: IOS(xcode) when you build it you get which version to build when running the application. Same for Android and hybrid apps
I'm developing a React Native application. We are using Fabric for beta testing. Is it possible to upload
Android app with split APKs ("armeabi-v7a" and "x86")
iOS app
with the same package ID?
Thanks! Yes this is possible, however you will need to create blank apps in AS and Xcode to get the initial skeleton setup in Fabric. Then you will be able to distribute your React Native app for both platforms.
I am new in Automating the apps for testing Android and i like to advance to this level... I have researched for Appium and Calabash... but knowing the difference pretty complicated.. There are my questions:
1: For Calabash, do we need the source code, i mean can i have APK and give test cases and so on? or do I NEED the source code even if im using the elements from app?
2: I heard i can use the Appium with cucumber, and same question do i need source code for that?
I have researched about it and all i get is for Apple apps... but nothing much for android...
You don't need source code. All you need is apk file, packageName and ActivityName to launch the app.
In Appium framework, all you need is app file (for android it will be simply .apk file).
Source code will be never needed, all elements from UI that you would like to interact with, can be simply get from Appium Inspector.
For both calabash and Appium you don't need to source code. you can automate application using apk file.
Yes you can use Appium with cucumber.
To find object locators of application use calabash console and Android UI Viewer, Appium GUI.
