Does codepush can get along with Detox?

[chenop]

Description

I got no fact base for this claim - but its seems that Im reducing the flakiness factor in my tests if I disable codepush. Also stumble into this StackOverflow Answer.

Is it a known issue? What is your recommendation regarding using codepush with Detox?

Your environment

Detox version: 19.10.0 React Native version: 0.66.4 Node version: 14.19.1 Device model: Iphone 13 OS: Test-runner (select one): jest-circus / jest+jasmine / mocha / other

Not aware of this problem TBH

[chenop]

Thanks @d4vidi for responding - one more thing to consider: When an app has a codepush version to download then there will be this extra blink and restart that caused during the replacement of the bundle - do you think it might disrupt and fail a detox test?

[d4vidi]

I think it might disrupt Detox, because it assumes the bundle loading takes place inherently during app launch. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean that Detox cannot fundamentally work with codepush; It sounds like the blindspots are mainly around the use cases where a new bundle is loaded, dynamically.

Right exactly - this important point to take into consideration while running the tests - Thanks!
