By Bhau Automation • Appium Automation Series

🚀 Master Appium TDD Framework

In this tutorial, you will learn how to build a robust Appium automation framework using Test Driven Development (TDD) and Page Object Model (POM). This approach helps create scalable, maintainable, and industry-ready automation frameworks.

🎯 What You Will Learn

Appium framework basics
Test Driven Development (TDD) concept
Page Object Model (POM) implementation
Reusable automation design
Best practices for mobile automation

📌 What is TDD in Appium?

Test Driven Development (TDD) is a development approach where test cases are written before the actual implementation. It ensures better test coverage, cleaner code, and faster debugging.

📘 What is Page Object Model?

Page Object Model (POM) is a design pattern where each mobile screen is represented as a separate class. This improves:

Code readability
Maintainability
Reusability
Framework scalability

🧩 Sample POM Structure

src
 ├── base
 │    └── BaseTest.java
 ├── pages
 │    ├── LoginPage.java
 │    └── HomePage.java
 ├── tests
 │    └── LoginTest.java

🧪 Example Page Class

public class LoginPage {

    @AndroidFindBy(id = "com.app:id/username")
    private MobileElement username;

    @AndroidFindBy(id = "com.app:id/password")
    private MobileElement password;

    @AndroidFindBy(id = "com.app:id/loginBtn")
    private MobileElement loginBtn;

    public void login(String user, String pass) {
        username.sendKeys(user);
        password.sendKeys(pass);
        loginBtn.click();
    }
}

🧠 Why Use TDD + POM?

Cleaner automation framework
Reusable test components
Easy maintenance
Industry standard approach
Supports CI/CD pipelines
