Kotlin Mvp Espresso

This example describes how use Espresso in Android-Kotlin Using MVP, Dagger2, Retrofit

Espresso is testing framework, provided by the Android Testing Support Library, provides APIs for writing UI tests to simulate user interactions. The steps for setup Espresso is the same steps if you use kotlin or java.

Espresso main components:

  • Espresso : ( onView() and onData()) Finds the view by using ViewMatchers.
  • ViewMatchers : ( withId()) Which can pass into the onView method to locate a view within the current view hierarchy.
  • ViewActions : ( perform()) Performs ViewActions for example: click().
  • ViewAssertions : ( check()) Validate the state of the currently selected view for example: isDisplayed().
Example:
Espresso.onView(ViewMatchers.withId(R.id.btn_submit))  .perform(ViewActions.click())  .check(ViewAssertions.matches(ViewMatchers.isDisplayed())) 

Expresso packages:

  • Espresso-Core
  • Espresso-idling-resource
  • Espresso-Contrib (RecyclerViewActions)
  • Espresso-intents
  • Espresso-web Not included in this project

Espresso-Core :
Contains core and basic View matchers, actions, and assertions.

Example:
TextView
// check if tv_empty_data displayed on current screen  and contain no_data_available text onView(withId(R.id.tv_empty_data)).check(matches(isDisplayed()))  onView(withId(R.id.tv_empty_data)).check(matches(withText(R.string.no_data_available)))  
ReceycleView
onView(withId(R.id.rv_repositories_list)).check (matches (not (isDisplayed ())))  

matches (not (isDisplayed ()) will be true if the view is INVISIBLE or GONE you can check the visibility

onView(withId(R.id.rv_repositories_list)).check(matches(withEffectiveVisibility(Visibility.GONE)));
  

Be careful with the difference between asserting that a view is not displayed and asserting that a view is not present in the view hierarchy.

doesNotExist() Mean the view is not present in the view hierarchy, and this is different than not(Displayed()) not(Displayed()) Mean the view is in the view hierarchy but the visiblility is (INVISIBLE or GONE) or the view not displayed now in screen.

Example Snackbar:
onView(allOf(withId(android.support.design.R.id.snackbar_text),

 withText("Please enter github account name")))

  .check(doesNotExist());
  

allOf: used when looking through the various attributes of the views

onView(allOf(withId(R.id.but_show_repositories),

 withText("Show Repositories List"),

 isDisplayed()))

  .perform(click())  

Espresso-idling-resource:
Espresso waits until the UI is idle before it moves to the next operation. However, there are instances where applications perform background operations (such as communicating with web services) via non-standard means; for example: direct creation and management of threads. In such cases, you have to use Idling Resources for synchronization with background jobs.

The ways to implement Idling Resources:

  • Counting running jobs
  • Querying state
For example splash screen

I created SplashIdlingResource to wait for 3 sec (splash delay time) then inform Espresso

class SplashIdlingResource(private val waitingTime: Long) : IdlingResource {

private val startTime: Long

private var resourceCallback: ResourceCallback? = null

  init {

 this.startTime = System.currentTimeMillis()

}

  override fun getName(): String {

 return SplashIdlingResource::class.java.name + ":" + waitingTime

}

  override fun isIdleNow(): Boolean {

 val elapsed = System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime

 val idle = elapsed >= waitingTime

 if (idle) {

  resourceCallback!!.onTransitionToIdle()

 
}

 return idle

}

  override fun registerIdleTransitionCallback(resourceCallback: ResourceCallback) {

 this.resourceCallback = resourceCallback

}
  
}
  

Register it @Before and unRgigster it @After

Espresso-Contrib: (RecyclerViewActions) External contributions that contain DatePicker, RecyclerView and Drawer actions, accessibility checks, and CountingIdlingResource. In this example I will use RecyclerViewActions to scroll to a specific item. With out RecyclerviewActions you can only test the visible items on screen to test invisble item you have to scroll to position

onView(withId(R.id.rv_repositories_list))
  .perform(RecyclerViewActions.scrollToPosition<RepositoriesListAdapter.RepositoryItemViewHolder>(9))

 onView(

 allOf(withId(R.id.tv_repository_name),  withText("Flickr"), // we can set tag and test it withTagValue

isDisplayed())).check(matches(withText("Flickr")))  

Espresso-intents: Extension to validate and stub intents for hermetic testing. Here you can mock the intent and to be sure if app navigate to correct intent or not.

To use Espresso-intents:

  • Use the IntentsTestRule instead of ActivityTestRule.
  • Or init Intents at @Before and release it at @After
// is an equivalent of verify(mock, times(1)) in Mockito  Intents.intended(IntentMatchers.hasComponent(RepositoriesListActivity::class.java.name))  

Note

  • It is recommended to turn of the animation on the Android device which is used for testing. Animations might confusing Espressos check for ideling resources
  • Espresso tests must be placed in the app/src/androidTest folder.
