Reduce UI Automation Test Time in Android
I wrote a UI Automation test using UI Automator. Here are the test steps.
- Open My App
- Open Settings
- Click Advance Features(Samsung Only)
- Enable Finger Sensor Gesture
- Open Recent Apps
- Open My App
This whole automation test takes 8-7 seconds. Is there any workaround to reduce this test time to 4-5 seconds or is there any framework other than UI Automator that would execute these steps in less time. Apk installation takes 2-3 seconds.

UI tests from its nature take longer to execute, because they replicate real user behaviour.
I would suggest to profile your methods to see how long it takes particular step and optimise if needed, but I don't think that will be the case.
