Detox is a gray box end-to-end testing and automation framework for mobile apps, primarily React Native, running tests on real devices and simulators. It eliminates flakiness by automatically synchronizing with asynchronous operations in the app under test.

Use cases

  • write e2e tests for react native apps
  • run automated mobile ui tests on ios and android simulators
  • reduce flakiness in mobile e2e test suites
  • run mobile e2e tests in ci pipelines
  • automate login and user flows on mobile apps
  • test react native app on device like a real user

When to choose

  • you build React Native or native mobile apps and need deterministic E2E tests
  • you want tests that run on simulators/devices with automatic async synchronization
  • you need CI-friendly mobile testing with Jest integration

When to avoid

  • you only test web applications
  • you need iOS real-device testing, which is not yet supported
  • you want black-box testing without app instrumentation
