Scenario: Your team is developing a mobile app that uses a third-party library for image processing, and this library behaves differently on Android and iOS. How would you approach testing and automation for this specific scenario?

  • Collaborate with the development team to ensure consistent behavior or alternatives for the third-party library on both platforms
  • Create separate test scenarios for Android and iOS, focusing on the third-party library interactions
  • Mock the third-party library responses during testing to create a consistent behavior
  • Utilize Appium's capability to interact with third-party libraries seamlessly
Creating separate test scenarios for Android and iOS with a focus on third-party library interactions allows for targeted testing and handling of platform-specific behaviors, ensuring robust automation.

Scenario: Your Appium test script is interacting with a dynamic list of items that load asynchronously. How would you implement waits to ensure that the script waits for the elements to be available before proceeding with interactions?

  • FluentWait
  • Pause script execution
  • Thread.sleep()
  • WebDriverWait with ExpectedConditions
To handle dynamically loading elements, it's recommended to use WebDriverWait with ExpectedConditions. This allows the script to wait for specific conditions to be met before proceeding with interactions, ensuring synchronization with asynchronous elements.

In cases where testing on real devices is impractical, _____ can be used to create a compromise between real devices and emulators/simulators.

  • Cloud Testing Services
  • Docker Containers
  • Sandboxing
  • Virtual Machines
In cases where testing on real devices is impractical, cloud testing services can be used to create a compromise between real devices and emulators/simulators. This allows for scalability and accessibility in a controlled environment.

In mobile app security testing with Appium, _____ testing focuses on identifying vulnerabilities that exist in the application's source code.

  • Black-box
  • Dynamic
  • Grey-box
  • Static
In mobile app security testing, static testing focuses on analyzing the application's source code without executing it. This helps identify vulnerabilities early in the development process.
