the single biggest reason is because of the ruby dependency if you do not have either rvm or rbenv installed then you may have issues installing this package system ruby for mac can have issues the designation from beta to full production is a high priority and moving quickly.

Yes. Calabash for Appcelerator Titanium (vanilla and Alloy) iOS and Android This includes to physical devices as well as Simulators/Emulators

Install the module with: npm install -g ticalabash

Enter the password you normally enter for sudo when requested.

Don't use sudo npm install yourself, because it is bad practise and will break the installation process. It's better to correctly set the permissions on the /usr/local directory instead, so you don't have to ever use sudo again when installing npm packages.

sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local

To test TiCalabash, create a default Alloy application and run: ti calabash --platform=[android,ios]

• On iOS: Just press enter when asked which target to duplicate.
• On Android: Make sure your emulator (hint: Use Genymotion) should already be running.

After lots of compiling, you should see:

Feature: Home Screen
  As an App Developer
  I want to see an example feature work on a default alloy app
  So that I can start using TiCalabash quickly

  Scenario: See Home Screen                          # features/home_screen.feature:6
    Given I am on the Home Screen                    # features/step_definitions/ticalabash_custom_steps.rb:1
    Then I should see text containing "Hello, World" # calabash-cucumber-0.11.3/features/step_definitions/calabash_steps.rb:384
    And take picture                                 # calabash-cucumber-0.11.3/features/step_definitions/calabash_steps.rb:229

1 scenario (1 passed)
3 steps (3 passed)

The picture/screenshot is named screenshot_X.png and can be found in:

• On iOS: the build/iphone folder.
• On Android: the project root folder.

Because TiCalabash is wrapping Calabash, please use Calabash's documentation to learn how to use Calabash together with Cucumber:

• Calabash iOS documentation
• Calabash Android documentation

(The iOS documentation is far superior to the Android documentation and is mostly valid for Android as well).

If you don't have a features directory at the project root level, it will be created. The ti calabash command will rebuild your Android or iOS app every time.

Querying your UI

• On iOS
• On Android

Recording Touches

Recording of touches is currently not supported, for two reasons:

• It does not work anymore with Calabash iOS on iOS 7+
• Has never been implemented in Calabash Android

The following slide deck may be of use: TiCalabash: Fully automated Acceptance Testing @ TiConf EU 2014

If you want to integrate TiCalabash in Jenkins, use the following configuration:

cd ~/Desktop/ticonf2014testappdemo/alloytest # or actually pull from git. 
titanium clean titanium build --platform=iphone --test & 
sleep 30 
killall "iPhone Simulator" 

export PATH=“/Users/andrewmcelroy/.rbenv/shims:/Users/andrewmcelroy/bin:/usr/local/bin: /Users/andrewmcelroy/.rbenv/bin:/Users/andrewmcelroy/android/tools:/Users/andrewmcelroy/android/: /Users/andrewmcelroy/android//tools:/Users/andrewmcelroy/android/platform-tools/:/usr/bin:/bin: /usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/git/bin:" 

echo | titanium calabash —platform=iphone
cd ~/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/7.1/Applications/ 
AppGUID = $(find . -name "alloytest" | cut -d "/" -f 2) 

cp "~/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/7.1/Applications/$AppGUID/Documents/jenkins.xml" $WORKSPACE/jenkins.xml

Make sure you replace the folders with the actual folders on your system.

In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality.
