How can I test when app requires OTP via SMS?

You may use a third party service like Twilio. They provide api's to manage phone numbers and also allow you to read the sms.

@d4vidi do we have a solution? Or we should just tell to mock this?

MuckT commented 2 years ago

We had a use case that was similar and ended up going the route that @indradeepchowdhury mentioned and ended up using the Twilio API.

d4vidi commented 2 years ago

Typically, we would advise testing in a more stable mocked environment. Namely, running the (login?) flow all the way to the OTP, mocking away the OTP service itself, and only making sure it was triggered properly using your mock. For example, render a screen showing which args were passed to it and asserting them using toBeVisible() calls.

If, nevertheless, you need to test this E2E in an unmocked (though potentially flaky) way, you might want to consider using twillio's OTP solution, as suggested.
