APPIUM Architecture for Android

-

 

Ø   Appium proxies commands to a UIAutomator test case running on the device. 

Ø   UIAutomator is Android’s native UI automation framework which supports running junit test cases directly in to the device from the command line.

Ø   It uses java as a programming language but Appium will make it run from any of the WebDriver supported languages.

Ø   In the above diagram we can see, here we have Bootstrap.jar in place of bootstrap.js which represents out test case when compiled in java.

Ø   As soon as it gets launched it spawns a TCP server. Here the TCP server resides inside the device and client is in the Appium process.

Appium Architecture for iOS

Ø    On iOS, Appium proxies command to a UIAutomation script running in Mac Instruments environment. Ø    Apple provides this application called ‘instruments’ which is used to do lot activities like profiling, controlling and building iOS apps but it also has an automation component where we can write some commands in javascript which uses UIAutomation APIs to interact with the App UI. Appium utilizes these same libraries to automate iOS Apps.. Ø   In the above figure, we can see the architecture of the Appium in context to the iOS automation. If we talk about a command life-cycle, it goes like, Selenium webdriver picks a command form the code like (Element.click) and sends it in form of JSon via http request to the Appium server.  Appium server knows the automation context like the iOS and Android and sends this command to the Instruments...
