Abstract

The project is aimed at providing automation of user interface testing and business function and process testing. The proposed system is to develop highly consistent and reusable test scripts which will run the test cases on both iOS and Android devices simultaneously. It is achieved by using Appium which is a cross-platform testing tool which, supports mobile application testing on both iOS and Android platform. Page Object Model is a design pattern which has become popular in test automation for enhancing test maintenance and reducing code duplication. In the proposed system a page object is created which is an object-oriented class that serves as an interface to a page of the application under test. Further this project can be enhanced by synchronizing with cloud by using Jenkins and a job in a Jenkins can be scheduled periodically to maintain the consistency of the framework and test results can be published to group of subscribers who subscribes to a particular domain.
