"About the Presentation. . .
"Writing automated tests for a React Native mobile application is notoriously difficult. Mobile components display on the page, but are not fully loaded. Lengthy animations and slow-loading components take a while to finish. Timing issues cause your automated tests to error out giving the appearance of flaky tests.
