Xamarin UITest in the real world

Its that time again! Join us for our next Auckland Xamarin Meetup - Xamarin UITest in the real world!

Testing your mobile apps manually is time consuming and error prone. It’s much better to be able to create automation tests that can reliably, reproducibly and repeatably test your apps.

With Xamarin UITest you can write automation tests in C# that you can run against your apps on simulators or local devices. With Xamarin Test Cloud you can run these tests across thousands of devices in the cloud.

In this talk Jim will give an overview of UITest, show how you can use it to interact with your apps, show how the REPL gives you a way to interact with your app live inside a console.

After this Andrew will pick up the baton and talk about his experiences running these tests in the real world, discussing how to achieve the perfect balance between speed, reliability and ensuring your tests achieve their goal of proving your app works in the hands of actual users.

As always, we will be at 210 Federal Street, the Datacom building. We will kick off the presentation at 6.15pm so plan to arrive at 6pm for the Drinks and Pizza we will provide!

See you there!
