BaseTest

This class is responsible for initializing and managing the test environment based on the platform (Android or iOS). Its main tasks include:

• Initializing the Appium driver depending on whether the platform is Android or iOS.

• Setting up a FluentWait mechanism to handle dynamic elements during the test flow.

• Performing all necessary pre-test configurations before any test execution begins.

• Tearing down the Appium driver after all tests are completed to free up system resources.

All of these operations are managed using JUnit 5 annotations: @BeforeAll and @AfterAll.

@BeforeAll setup()

This static method runs once before all tests in the test class.

• It determines the test platform based on:

  • Whether the DeviceAndroid flag is set to true, in which case Android is selected.

  • If not, it checks TestiniumEnvironment.isPlatformAndroid() to infer the platform.

• Based on the platform, appropriate DesiredCapabilities are configured.

• Then, it launches the platform-specific driver:

  • TestiniumAndroidDriver for Android.

  • TestiniumIOSDriver for iOS.

• A FluentWait object is also initialized, allowing the test to wait dynamically for UI elements to become available.

@AfterAll teardown()

This method runs once after all tests have been executed.

• If the Appium drivers were initialized, they are gracefully terminated using quit().

• This ensures proper cleanup and releases system resources efficiently.
