React Native UI Testing Without the Pain — Maestro Studio

Maestro Studio is a free, open-source desktop application that simplifies UI and end-to-end testing for mobile apps. The walkthrough covers installing Maestro Studio, connecting real Android and iOS devices, creating test flows visually by clicking and right-clicking UI elements, using built-in commands like swipe gestures and random input generation, and running tests locally. It also demonstrates Maestro Cloud, which lets you run the same test flows in parallel across multiple real devices and OS versions (Android API 31/34, iOS 17/18) without owning those devices. CI/CD integration via GitHub Actions and Expo Application Services is also covered, enabling automated test runs on every pull request.
