Run web test (WebdriverIO) and ios app test (Appium) within the same test

What are you trying to achieve?

I am trying to automate test cases where I have to do some stuff in the mobile app then move to a desktop browser and do other stuff.

Things that I have tried so far

Set both Appium and WebdriverIO as helpers

• Mobile tests works fine but when I get to the browser part, I get a Method is not implemented error for I.amOnPage('/'). Note that I already have existing browser test cases that I wish to reuse.

Set Appium only as helper and pass url config(since the Appium driver only extends Webdriver)

• Mobile tests works, then opens a browser within the Simulator.

I have noticed that it is always using the Appium driver, thus getting the error mentioned above. Is there a way to switch drivers? if there aren’t any, what do you think is the best solution aside from rewriting the test cases themselves?

• CodeceptJS version: 1.1.4

Yeah it was just a quick proof of concept so it appears that it doesn’t support page objects.

Though we were discussing this kind of feature, and it received a positive feedback but we can’t guarantee if or when just yet.

We are doing a POC on CodeceptJS and we have a number of scenarios which involves sandwiched test cases wherein we have to switch between Web, Mobile and API sessions in the same test case. Could you please let me know if this feature is implemented wherein I can switch between different helpers (for example: from Webdriver to Appium) in the same scenario?
