Detox: tackling the flakiness of mobile automation - Viktorija Sujetaitė

As the number of smartphone users is expected to hit the 5 billion mark next year, we can confidently assume that the popularity and demand of mobile apps will continue to grow. Naturally, mobile apps do require testing, but a lot of it is done manually. The most difficult part of automated testing on mobile, is only the tip of the testing pyramid - E2E tests. The core of the problem with E2E is flakiness, which results in unreliable tests.
At Wix, we believe the only way to tackle this flakiness head on is by moving from black box testing to gray box testing. And for that, React Native mobile apps automation library - Detox - is being created.
