ETN app Android. Test Automation Project

Overview

This project focuses on automating the testing of the ETN (Enlaces Terrestres Nacionales a mexican bus company) Android application using Appium and Python in PyCharm. The automation suite is designed to validate key functionalities of the app, ensuring a smooth user experience.

Features

• Automated Testing: Simulates user interactions within the ETN mobile application, covering ticket booking and route selection.
• Page Object Model: Structure tu ensure a clearness, reusability.
• Dynamic Locators : As expected, some actions may being unstable. Some locators were writen in a generic way so they can behave on user expectations but keeping a clean code.
• Static Methods: They interact with other methods but keeping the code clearness.

You can find the next Test Scenarios:

• Book round trip
• Book round trip with ticket insurance
• Book single trip
• Book Open ticket
• Book Senior Fare
• Sign Up in Doters(Frequent Traveler Program)
• Login in Doters.

Here you can find Test Cases in Gherkin Language I wrote for these scenarios: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/15KoSjEIv8JxSaL36uwzzDebvCkTFZrHs?usp=sharing

Technologies Used

• Python: The primary programming language used for automation scripts.
• Appium: Framework for automating mobile applications.
• PyCharm: Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for Python development.
• Android Studio: Used for setting up the Android emulator. .

Installation

To set up the project locally, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/jphm95/etn_app_android.git
   

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd etn_app_android
   

3. Open the project in PyCharm or your preferred IDE. Ensure all necessary dependencies are installed. You can use pip to install required packages:

   pip install Appium-Python-Client
   

4. Set up the Android emulator in Android Studio and configure the desired capabilities in your Appium scripts.

5. Run Appium Server (https://appium.io/docs/en/latest/quickstart/)

6. Run the tests using your preferred method in PyCharm.

Challenges and Solutions

• Dynamic Elements: Handled dynamic UI components by implementing explicit waits to ensure elements are interactable during tests.

• Data: Data management is outside the test code, and in combination with other methods, results in a free behavior.

• User actions: Doing scroll and interact with some elements.

• Assertions: They depend 100% on user expectations, so they were thought in a dynamic way.

Future Work

• Test Assertions.
