UI testing ensures that your
application returns the correct UI
output in response to a sequence
of user actions on a device.

5. UI Testing
No knowledge of
implementation
Testing and
implementation
separated

6. Manual?
Time consuming
Not repeatable
Error prone

7. Manual?
Time consuming
Not repeatable
Error prone
We want to automate

8. Android?

9. Android?
uiautomator

10. Tests in Java
Android 4.1
Device

11. How to test
in 3 steps

12. 1
Create
the App

13. 2
Prepare
the Test

14. Prepare the Test
Application is
accessible
Application is
on the device
Use
uiautomatorviewer
Set development
environment
Create
the test

15. Development environment
Java project
+
JUnit + uiautomator.jar + android.jar

16. Use uiautomatorviewer

17. Create the Test
extend the
UiAutomatorTestCase
class

18. Use available classes
UiDevice
UiSelector
UiObject
UiCollection
UiScrollable

19. UiSelector
UiObject threeButton = new UiObject(
new UiSelector().text("3"));
threeButton.click();

20. UiSelector
UiObject urlForm = new UiObject(
new UiSelector()
.resourceId("com.android.browser:id/url"));
urlForm.setText("http://www.gug.cz");
getUiDevice().pressEnter();

21. What can I do with UiObject?
Use gestures
Retrieve attributes
Set text
No manipulation

22. We can use Asserts
assertEquals(threeButton.getText(), "3");

23. 3
Run
the Test

24. Run the Test
1) Build with Ant
2) Push to device
3) Run the test
