![]() This is one of the greatest benefits of using TestProject. Simply add Jonathon’s add-on to your tests and you’re good to go. Normally you would have to code up your own implementation of deep links, but if you’re using TestProject there is no need. This approach can make your Appium tests run faster. The Appium add-on Deep Links has the functionality to open special URLs (AKA “ deep links”) that can be associated with specific apps. That means there's a lot of built-in functionality available to you in TestProject that remedies many things you would normally have to code from scratch when creating your own test automation framework.įor example, Jonathan Lipps, Architect and Project Lead for Appium, has contributed to the TestProject framework by adding another add-on to their ever-growing list. TestProject explains an addon as a collection of coded action you can use within your tests. TestProject also acts as a wrapper over other technologies as well by using the power of add-ons. Selenium and Appium are used in the background, so a good way to think about TestProject is that it’s like a wrapper on top of Selenium and Appium. This is a valid concern, but the good news is that TestProject uses best in breed solutions like Selenium and Appium in their framework-with the added benefit of numerous functionalities you don’t have to create from scratch. I’m pointing this out because lots of folks recognize this and don’t want to use a tool that doesn’t follow the Selenium or Appium standards. Appium is also on the same path as Selenium as far as being adopted by the industry as a standard. With the W3C standard, it will be supported even more in the future. So a few years ago the Selenium project ceased to be around one obscure body of open source developers and became an industry standard the browsers will have to support. W3C is an international community of member organizations that articulates web standards so that websites look and work the same in all web browsers. ![]() I think we can all agree Selenium is the standard when it comes to browser automation, but did you know that Selenium WebDriver is now an official W3C standard as well? Since writing about TestProject in a previous post, some folks have asked me what the difference between TestProject and Selenium or Appium actually is. It’s rather how TestProject enhances the already awesome features of Selenium and Appium. This post is not about how TestProject is better than Selenium or Appium. First off, the title is a little misleading. ![]()
