Henry Moulton - React Native end-to-end testing with Maestro | App.js Conf 2023

So far every time Henry's e2e tested React Native apps it’s always been painful. He's worked extensively with Detox at multiple companies, and with Appium while at Amazon and Yonder. In 2023 he's chosen to bet on Maestro. This is an educational talk on E2E testing and why Maestro might be better for you. In his talk, Henry will show you why he prefers to write Maestro tests and why its developer experience is far better than what existed before.

Been struggling with making sure the order of execution of flows is predictable and as written in the config file, but not sure where to place this config file, if we go by the docs it says to place at the root where maestro is installed from brew but what if I want to have multiple projects using maestro? Will that not raise a conflict?

Maestro is good, I have unexpected issue with text input and focusing event with Detox on Android and have no idea why.

07:45 The main advantage for me is that Maestro does not need to put in my dependencies.
Thanks!
