AWS IoT Core vs. Espresso

End-to-end encryption is an amazing feature because we use IoT to connect to various devices in order to gather data/ stats in real-time. We're able to publish solutions with ease and at a faster rate because of AWS IoT Core. However, its inability to interact with other IoT tools is a big con that I would like them to improve upon.

• It is very easy to verify Images with drawable resources
• Color Verification we can do this by referring to the same hex code as the developer team used so that it is reused.
• Opening a desired activity without performing End-to-end flow which eventually saves time.
• If the application is built on Android we can go testing activity with Espresso as it provides all the necessary APIs
• Espresso is not appropriate to iOS app automation, from a business point of view we need to hire new resources for iOS testing.

• AWS IoT Core integrates power analytics and an AI solution for sensor data processing.
• Great protocol support including HTTPs and MQTT required to connect resource constraint IoT devices to cloud
• High security standards during data transmission
• Scalability and a great user community

Incentivized

• Automatic Waiting logic before failing any test
• Black box and Grey box testing
• Easy to Understand and Very Flexible
• Supported Java And Kotlin
• Fewer Efforts compare to other Mobile Automation Frameworks
• Execution is very Fast

Incentivized

• Ability to integrate with Ethercalc software solution
• Ability to introduce NFC toolchains and systems which could be utilized in iot modular gateway solutions like drones
• Ability to reduce latency as the solution scales is very much needed
• Hybrid solution which can integrate other existing iot solutions into AWS iot core

• As Espresso works on the ideal thread if the threads are not handled properly by the developing team it can lead to challenges in the execution of your tests.
• Depends more on the developer's code
• we cannot develop tests as individual frameworks, we share the repository with developers.
• We need to be cautious while making changes in the tests, as we share same repository

I give AWS IoT Core's overall usability this rating because it is very easy to use and is enjoyed by all of our staff. The only problem is that it sometimes glitches and it freezes a lot. So overall, the usability of AWS IoT Core is very good, and we will continue to use it.

It covers all the aspects of IoT services required for an IoT company. It supports all the industry-wide protocols for secure data transmission and integrates powerful AL and ML technology for data analytics. For data storage, Amazon S3 is a great solution. Strong tech support and user community. Since it is widely used as compared to other products, there is an abundance of training and learning material on the web.

Azure IoT service provides more or less the same services as compared to AWS IoT core, however the costing of AWS lead us to continued usage of IoT core over Azure IoT services. Also, considering our existing technology stack is on AWS, it was a natural selection for better integration and ease of use.

As our app is complete on Android Espresso is the best choice over Appium Fewer efforts in Espresso over Appium, as Espresso provides some built-in library to perform the operation. Easy to use, Espresso is very easy to understand and we can perform operations with very little code. Developers can contribute, as they have good command over Java and Kotin languages and also use Espresso for unit testing.

• Gives confidence to prototype iot solutions across lots of devices in little time
• Ability to meet requirements for managing a variety of communication protocols
• Learning iot analytics and visualization for faster insights enablement
• Onboarding devices and managing quickly without building inhouse solutions

Incentivized

• As it is an Open Source tool it cost-effective
• East to use, so that you can train many new Joiners to start delivering the tasks
• Maintainance is very low, as we depend on the developer's layout files we can reuse their elements
• We can cover most of the scenarios which helps in the coverage of the tests
