How to install WebdriverIO automation framework and run it.
Instagram example

Requirements:

Macbook

IDE

Execute the following steps in your IDE. I will use Visual Studio Code AKA VS Code

1. Open the terminal, navigate to the folder of your preference and create a new one, get inside of it and run:

npm init wdio .

2. Ok to proceed? (y) - Letter y in () means its a default option. So hit enter to choose it

3. Where is your automation backend located? - Select: On my local machine and hit enter

4. Which framework do you want to use? - Mocha

5. Do you want to use a compiler? - No!

6. Where are your test specs located? - Just hit enter choose default path ./test/specs/**/*.js

7. Do you want WebdriverIO to autogenerate some test files? - Type in letter Y if you would like to get examples autogenerated for you, or n if you would not

8. Add following code to your newly created login-spec file from step above. Don't forget to update instagram username and password in the code below to yours.

9. Do you want to use page objects? - I say Y, so you could see their way of doing it

10. Where are your page objects located? - Hit enter to use default path ./test/pageobjects/**/*.js

12. Do you want to add a plugin to your test setup? - wait-for
