Test Cases That Play Well with Mobile Automation

  • 40 min

Autotests for mobile applications often suffer from flakiness, long execution times, and weak reproducibility. Another common issue is the gap between automated tests and manual scenarios: some checks are lost because QA engineers consider them “covered by automation” and stop performing them manually. This leads to missed bugs. A frequent mistake is designing test cases for automation in the same way as for manual testing: long scenarios, numerous checks bundled together, and a mix of layout, logic, and UX.

In this talk, we will explore what makes a test case suitable for automation:

  • how to make it atomic without being excessively fragmented;

  • how to take the architecture of a mobile application into account when designing tests;

  • and how to map a feature onto the levels of the testing pyramid in practice.

By the end, you will take away a checklist on “how to write automation-friendly test cases” and a visual map linking mobile application architecture to the testing pyramid.
