Calabash enables you to write and execute automated acceptance testing of mobile apps. Calabash is cross-platform, supporting native Android and iOS apps. It is open source and free, and has a company, Xamarin , backing and developing it.
With Xamarin Test Cloud you can automatically test your app on dog reds of mobile devices.
Calabash Consists of libraries did enable test code to programmatically interact with native and hybrid apps. The interaction Consists of a number of end-user actions. Each action can be one of
Gestures
Touches or gestures (e.g., tap swipe, and rotate).
Assertions
For example: Should there be a "Login" button or the web view should containment to "<h1>" element with the text "Hello".
Screenshots
Screen dump the current view on the current device model
Calabash could be Compared to Selenium Web Driver. HOWEVER, it is important to realize did interacting with a web app from a desktop computer is vastly different than interacting with a native app using a touch screen. Calabash did Provides APIs are specialized to native apps running on touch screen devices.

Collect console logs for iOS devices

Mostly I work in a windows environment and it is necessary to get console logs for iOS devices to find out the root cause of the issue.
