Proposal: Python for mobile automation and reliability

Description:

Are you part of a team responsible for mobile automation and reliability?
End to end automated testing and communicating effectively are important
when your project depends on multiple teams spread across functional
domains. At Braintree/PayPal, we built a framework to reliably ship
developer products such as One Touch. In this talk, we will go over using
BDD with Behave to describe test scenarios that speaks to both product and
engineering, using Appium for mobile automation, and Elasicsearch and
Kibana for storage and visualization of test results. You will see how the
breadth of packages available on PyPI, the flexibility and ease of Python
helped a team of developers whose core competencies were not in Python to
collaborate on a common ground.

Only beginner Python knowledge is necessary.
