Challenge
The test automation bottleneck
New Android features required matching UI tests. Developers were reading layout XML, tracing element hierarchies, and hand-writing repetitive TestNG code that was expensive to maintain.
Constraints
- Generated tests needed to survive routine UI refactors.
- The output had to match an Appium and TestNG Java stack.
- Generated code needed to remain readable and extendable.
- Delivery was constrained to a twelve-week internship window.
Approach
Key decisions
Semantic element capture
UIAutomator2 accessibility data is preferred over coordinate-based or deeply nested XPath selectors.
Page Object Model generation
The generator creates reusable screen objects instead of producing one flat, disposable test script.
Readable action naming
Recorded interactions are converted into human-readable method names so generated suites remain maintainable.
Repeatable TestNG output
Runner configuration is generated alongside tests to remove setup boilerplate from the developer workflow.
