How do you setup automated-tests for Capacitor native apps?

Capacitor allows us to code once then generate web, Android and iOS applications. Most people using Capacitor will generate native Android and iOS applications.

But strange enough, I can't find any documentation about how to create automated-tests for the two native applications. I can easily test the web application using protractor, jasmine or whatever. But when it comes to native apps, I can't hardly rely on native tooling (Android Studio and XCode) as there are other issues preventing me from testing it easily (ex: no possibility to set Accessibility ID through the views markup, etc).

Where are we at with Capacitor native apps automated-tests ?

I believe this is what you are looking for Ionic/capacitor Integrations for Testing

As far as the community/forums and official docs go there are only 3 ways you can test your apks

  1. Native [Andriod Studio / Xcode] [Emulated versions]
  2. Real Devices
  3. 3rd party Integration listed in the link above..

Even on google there very less info on this topic.. most of the blogs/ articles only say that Ionic/Capacitors can be tested just like a normal WEB App
