    Espresso

    Score8 out of 10
    N/AEspresso is a test framework used to write Android UI tests, and part of the Android SDK. The Espresso API encourages test authors to think in terms of what a user might do while interacting with the application - locating UI elements and interacting with them. At the same time, the framework prevents direct access to activities and views of the application because holding on to these objects and operating on them off the UI thread is a major source of test flakiness.

    • 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.

    • 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

    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.
