Cyancat

Mobile JSON Wire Javascript binding, best for Appium native app test automation.

Cyancat let you write Appium mobile automation test in a synchronized way in Javascript:

  it('sample test for sign in', function(done) {
    driver.run(function() {
      driver.init({
        "platformName": "iOS",
        "platformVersion": "9.3",
        "deviceName": "iPhone 6",
        "app": "./app/example.app"
      });
      // add memo
      driver.clickEl('Add');
      driver.typeEl('memo test summary 1', 'itemTitle');
      driver.clickEl('Done');

      // delete memo
      driver.clickEl('//UIATableCell[@name = "memo test summary 1"]', 'xpath');
      driver.clickEl('Delete');

      done();
    });

• Built-in element visibility check before any operation, no driver.sleep(1000) anymore
• Easily config selenium protocol timeout
• You just don't like method chaining style and would like to insert more complex stuff between actions
• Convenience and well documented methods that are more human friendly than WD.js
• The cyancat command line interface comes with a nice configuration utility that helps you to create your test framework in less than a minute.

Why the name

Because Cyancat uses Bluecat underlayer, and I expect tests written in Cyancat stay green...
