Mobile Test Automation with Appium

Continuous Integration with Jenkins

In the last chapter, we looked at how to run the Appium test on an emulator and physical devices. We also learned how to start the emulator through the command line. We explored how to run the Appium test on physical devices, including iOS devices. So far, we have seen how to use Appium, learned how to author test, learned to automate gestures, and learned about design patterns as well.

• Setting up Jenkins
• Exporting reports as artefacts

Generally, on any development project, we use a continuous integration tool. It's a standard development practice that ...
