Score 8.0 out of 10
N/A
Espresso 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.

Open Source
  • 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.

It's well suited when reaching a general population who's not too tech-savvy and isn't well integrated with the current VR ecosystem. To get into Google VR all you need is a Google Cardboard and a phone with the supported software. The setup for an Oculus and other devices really takes a lot of time to set up and equipment. That's Google VR's greatest factor.

Cons
Open Source
  • 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

Open Source
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.

Google VR lets us use Google lens. Google lens is the best way to find a certain place, object, or thing in a live form. We can a ticket, and using scanning the barcode using google lens tells us the arrival and departure. We can copy a text and paste it onto our laptop screen. We can try any outfit virtually and look if it's in our room.

Return on Investment
Open Source
  • 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
