Package Exports

@appium/driver-test-support
@appium/driver-test-support/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@appium/driver-test-support) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Testing utilities for Appium drivers

This package is for driver authors to help test their drivers.

Mocha is the supported test framework.

Usage

For E2E Tests

The driverE2ETestSuite method creates a Mocha test suite which makes HTTP requests to an in-memory server leveraging your driver.

Note that this method must be run within a _suite callback_—not a test callback.

import {driverE2ETestSuite} from '@appium/driver-test-support';

const defaultW3CCapabilities = {
  // some capabilities
};

describe('MyDriverClass', function() {
  driverE2ETestSuite(MyDriverClass, defaultW3CCapabilities);

  describe('more tests', function() {
    // ...
  });
});

For Unit Tests

The driverUnitTestSuite method creates a Mocha test suite which performs assertions on an isolated instance of your driver.

Note that this method must be run within a _suite callback_—not a test callback.

import {driverUnitTestSuite} from '@appium/driver-test-support';

const defaultW3CCapabilities = {
  // some capabilities
};

describe('MyDriverClass', function() {
  driverUnitTestSuite(MyDriverClass, defaultW3CCapabilities);

  describe('more tests', function() {
    // ...
  });
});

Helpers

These are just some helpers (mainly for E2E tests):

import {TEST_HOST, getTestPort, createAppiumURL} from '@appium/driver-test-support';
import assert from 'node:assert';
import _ from 'lodash';

describe('TEST_HOST', function() {
  it('should be localhost', function() {
    assert.strictEqual(TEST_HOST, '127.0.0.1');
  });
});

describe('getTestPort()', function() {
  it('should get a free test port', async function() {
    const port = await getTestPort();
    assert.ok(port > 0);
  });
});

describe('createAppiumURL()', function() {
  it('should create a "new session" URL', function() {
    const actual = createAppiumURL(TEST_HOST, 31337, '', 'session');
    const expected = `http://${TEST_HOST}:31337/session`;
    assert.strictEqual(actual, expected);
  });
  
  it('should create a URL to get an existing session', function() {
    const sessionId = '12345';
    const createGetSessionURL = createAppiumURL(TEST_HOST, 31337, _, 'session');
    const actual = createGetSessionURL(sessionId);
    const expected = `http://${TEST_HOST}:31337/session/${sessionId}/session`;
    assert.strictEqual(actual, expected);
  });
  
  it('should create a URL for a command using an existing session', function() {
    const sessionId = '12345';
    const createURLWithPath = createAppiumURL('127.0.0.1', 31337, sessionId);
    const actual = createURLWithPath('moocow');
    const expected = `http://${TEST_HOST}:31337/session/${sessionId}/moocow`;
    assert.strictEqual(actual, expected);
  });
});
