The answers for Section 1 is documented inside the file Digix Lightning Assessment Answers.docx

For section 2 ,the tests are written in Python and they are developed based on Pytest framework. Make sure that you have Python 3.7 installed on your system and execute

pip install -r requirements.txt

As there is no app selected for the tests , I have used the Zalora app available from Google Playstore. Since it is the official release of the app , there are some limitations for Appium auto tests.

• Install the Zalora App from Google playstore , https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zalora.android&hl=en
• Download and install Node.js (LTS version) from https://nodejs.org/en/download/
• Download and install Android Studio and Android SDK
• Setup the environment variable ANDROID_HOME to

C:\Users\<YourUser>\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk

• Start a command prompt and install appium

npm install -g [email protected]

• Start a command prompt and execute the following command to start the Appium Server

appium

There are 2 automated tests , test_scenario1.py and test_scenario2.py. Both are BDD tests which have their respective Gherkin files defined in their feature files.

The tests are designed in a way to maximize reusability. Page Object libraries are created to encapsulate the page properties and actions.

The same tests can be run on both Android and iOS without much modification , as the differences in the XPath are encapsulated in the page object libraries.

The tests can be run on Android by executing

pytest --os=Android

or for running on iOS (currently not supported , due to the limitations mentioned below)

pytest --os=iOS

The test results are output as Junit files and here is a sample of the test results

<testsuite disabled="0" errors="0" failures="0" name="test_scenario2.py" skipped="0" tests="1" time="32.09598731994629">
<testcase name="test_Scenario2_OrderTransaction" time="32.095987">

1. WebView is not available

For Scenario 1 - Facebook Login to be fully automated , Appium needs to be able to detect the WebView in App.

The developer will need to setWebContentsDebuggingEnabled in the app for Facebook login to proceed ,since the Facebook Login form is HTML based.

Kindly refer to the link https://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebView.html#setWebContentsDebuggingEnabled(boolean)

2. iOS Code-Signing problem

The Zalora app is code-signed and prohibits unidentified developer do the coding and try to run the app on various devices.

In this case , there will be problems identifying the elements on the App for iOS devices.

Hence ,iOS automation is currently not supported. Refer to the following links for futher information https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51160718/run-appium-automation-without-code-signing https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32728649/how-to-test-any-ios-app-with-appium

3. Paypal sandbox test account

For the tests to be able to complete the Paypal payment , it would require the app developer to enable sandbox test account on their account

• If you are seeing the following error during the test run

 selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command. Original error: Could not proxy command to remote server. Original error: Error: socket hang up
..\digixvenv\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\errorhandler.py:242: WebDriverException

Remove the uiautomator2 from the device. Start a command prompt and execute

adb uninstall io.appium.uiautomator2.server
adb uninstall io.appium.uiautomator2.server.test

Next , restart the Appium Server
