GA Test Automation
0 likes1,209 views
This document discusses automating Google Analytics (GA) testing for LINE TODAY. It proposes using Robotframework with Appium to simulate user actions in the LINE app and confirm that GA events are recorded correctly. It provides details on initializing the GA Reporting API to retrieve reports and examples of dimensions, metrics, and sample report requests. Code snippets demonstrate how to set up a service account and get credentials to access the GA Reporting API. The goal is to test new features for side effects and avoid human errors by automating the process of validating GA events.

Editor's Notes
- #4: as our user base increases, we have more feature requests
- #5: We need to measure the effectiveness of these features, how to we measure them?
- #6: who here uses GA in their projects? who here have checked GA manually? who here have used GA api? how many here uses GA api for test automation?
- #7: a lot of might think that features are the most important aspect in a project, but for a mid-to-large size project, you need to listen to your users to be even more successful. How do you listen to users? By analyzing their behavior. Features decided by statistics = user’s voice
- #8: For PC web browsers, it’s simple just use any browser’s Developer Tools. But what about mobile browsers or in-app web? Anyone has experience in checking mobile web?
- #18: User statistics is a very important factor in measuring success of a development project GA helps analyze user statistics and their behavior There are lots of tools to check GA in PC/mobile web browsers GA Reporting API is available to further customize reports and improve quality through automation
