⚙️ Prerequisites

• ☕ Java 17+

• ⚡ Maven 3+

• 📦 Node.js + Appium

  npm install -g appium

• 📱 Appium UiAutomator2 driver

▶️ Running Tests

1. Start emulator manually OR let the framework launch Test-Pixel_9a.

2. Run tests via Maven:

   mvn clean test

3. TestNG will:

   • Start emulator
   • Start Appium server
   • Install and launch ApiDemos-debug.apk
   • Execute automated steps
   • Quit driver and stop Appium

🛠 Example Test Flow

1. 📱 Start Emulator (Pixel_7_Pro)
2. 🚀 Start Appium server (programmatically)
3. 📦 Install and launch ApiDemos-debug.apk
4. 🤖 Run automated UI steps
5. 🛑 Quit driver & stop Appium server

📌 Future Enhancements

• 🧩 Implement Page Object Model (POM) design
• 🍏 Add iOS testing support with XCUITest driver
• 📊 Integrate reporting (Allure, ExtentReports)
• 🔄 CI/CD integration (Jenkins, GitHub Actions)
