Steps

  1. Set up a target device: an Android emulator via Android Studio's Virtual Device Manager, or an iOS Simulator via Xcode
  2. Install Maestro (CLI or Maestro Studio) per the official quickstart
  3. Create a Flow: a YAML file starting with an appId: header, a --- separator, then a list of step commands
  4. Add commands such as launchApp, tapOn, inputText, and takeScreenshot to drive and verify the UI
  5. Run the flow locally via Maestro Studio's Run button, or via the Maestro CLI for CI/CD
  6. Split larger scenarios into modular, reusable flows per Maestro's Flows guide
