Detox

Follow the getting started guide from detox ( https://github.com/wix/detox/blob/master/docs/Introduction.GettingStarted.md )

Usage

from detox_bridge import await, by, detox, device, element, expect, node_with_detox

app_path = "detox/examples/demo-react-native"

# Start Node server in app_path root folder that contains node_modules

with node_with_detox(app_path=app_path, default_timeout=10) as appserver:

    # Detox Config (we could also load this from package.json)

    ios_sim_release = {
        "binaryPath": "ios/build/Build/Products/Release-iphonesimulator/example.app",
        "type": "ios.simulator",
        "name": "iPhone 7 Plus"
    }

    configurations_obj = {"configurations": {"ios.sim.release": ios_sim_release}}

    # Longer timeout since the app may be installed

    appserver(await(detox.init(configurations_obj)), timeout=360)

    # Reload react native

    appserver(await(device.reloadReactNative()))

    # Expectation

    appserver(await(expect(element(by.id('welcome'))).toBeVisible()))

    # Cleanup

    appserver(await(detox.cleanup()))

Development

Requirements

Both python 3.5 and python 3.6 are required to run the suite suite.

Checkout

After checkout run:

git submodule update --init --recursive

Running tests

To run the test suite:

make test

Once the venv is there you can also run some tests via tox:

venv/bin/tox -e py35 -- -k <regex>
