Nick Lovelock, a senior solutions architect and founder of Ultimate Wacom, introduces Appium with Java and Sauce Labs and explains how developers learn to test and testers learn to develop.
Set environment variables in Gitpod for Appium with Java and Sauce Labs by configuring your Source Labs username and access key, then verify them with echo and run iOS test.
Explore Sauce Labs live mobile view and select iPhone models to run a test. Interact with the app via swipes, taps, and adding to cart, with session sharing.
upload your mobile apps to sauce storage for automation using manual upload or a rest API, and learn to use a CI pipeline to upload demo apps for testing.
Follow the iOS exercise test using Java in Appium with Maven to set the platform name, run on any iPhone 12, and implement the to-dos until the test passes.
Set the iOS platform and manage device pools with dynamic allocation, targeting specific OS versions and devices, while using team-based scheduling and night execution to reduce queue times.
Learn to configure iOS Appium tests with Java and Sauce Labs by deriving the test name from the method, using mutable capabilities, timeouts, language, and device settings.
Instantiate an iOS driver, assign it to the test watcher, and wait for the accessibility id to exist before asserting it is displayed, as seen in the maven test run.
Learn to create an automated iOS test with Appium and Sauce Labs by configuring iOS devices, uploading builds to source storage, and validating cart interactions with accessibility IDs and waits.
Learn to use Appium Inspector to identify elements by accessibility ID, set up Source Labs credentials, configure desired capabilities, and start a session, while designing small, parallel tests.
Explore sauce labs real device sessions with the Appium inspector. Inspect elements like DevTools, view attributes and the next path, and send tap commands to the app.
Practice automating an add-to-cart flow with Appium, observe the cart badge update as items are added, and verify item counts during the test exercise.
Learn how Appium enables testing across web and native contexts for iOS and Android, using accessibility IDs and iOS class chain locators to interact with items like a cart.
Learn to run Appium tests in parallel using Sauce Labs, debug sessions with breakpoints, inspect and interact with elements, and handle Android vs iOS locators and wait strategies.
Mobile app testing is one of the most crucial phases of an app’s development process. It helps detect a software program’s bugs, failure, and performance issues before the final release.
This tutorial will help you learn how to use Appium with Java and Sauce Labs to test Android or iOS apps on real devices or emulators at any time and on demand. To test applications, it is important to ensure that different user journeys are covered comprehensively and test them across multiple app environments (e.g., home screen, Settings menu etc.).
Moreover, as mobile apps continue to grow in complexity and adoption of smart devices continues to rise globally, it is also essential to automate these testing activities as much as possible.
In this new tutorial, we will discuss how you can use Appium with Java and Sauce Labs to significantly reduce the complexity of your mobile app tests while increasing their effectiveness by running them in an automated environment where they can be executed in parallel on iOS or Android mobile environment.

What our students are saying?
“Great course! This was one of the most thorough training courses I have ever taken/endured/survived. For me the course had a real "graduate course" feel to it, along with some almost impossible challenges that will result in frustration as well as some very deep learning.”- David Kotschessa
“The C# section is taught by someone else, which surprised me, but I think they did a great job at instructing at a beginner level. The Selenium materials are quite comprehensive and the instructor is easy to follow and understand. I am impressed that the author has taken the time to keep the course materials updated, and therefore merits 5 stars in my book!” - David Draper
“Well I can't explain in words how much am excited after completing this course. The more I was close to completion the more am getting excited. You are a great instructor Nikolay. You don't just taught Selenium but other aspects of being a beautiful coder. Now am pretty confident and can say "Yes" to my clients when they need me to automate the application. Thank you Sir for all the hard work and effort you put in the course. Surely would like to see you in another engaging course!” - Randhawa Verma
“I like fundamental approach used by author. Will see:) To prepare such a course - it's a really hard and big job. Respect and thank you.” - Serhii Kovalenko
“Wonderful content and things explained in a nutshell. Overwhelmed by Author's dedication to put things in such a way that any novice or manual tester can follow and understand and definitely be on-boarded as a Selenium Automation Engineer next day at work. Thanks a million times for creating these courses! One Stop for Automation."- Rupashree Geethaaviji Ananthakrishna
“I am familiar with Nikolay from a course I saw on TestAutomation and have the highest regard for him. Glad to see him on Udemy.” - Annamalai Viswanathan
“One Of the Best courses on Selenium With C#. Cheers Nikolay!!” - Saransh Vaid
