Leading a Multi-Platform Open-Source Project: Lessons from Detox - Amit Davidi & Asaf Korem
Wix’s Detox is a high-traction UI testing framework for mobile apps (React Native). It is one of the most prominent tools in Wix’s mobile-ecosystem toolbox, and also one of Wix’s top-5 open-source projects, with more than 10K stars on Github, 250 contributors, 200K weekly downloads on npm.js, 300 members on Discord, 600 tagged questions on StackOverflow, and more.
Contributing to the community through working on such a project has been a rewarding experience for us, the Detox team. Nevertheless, the desire to both provide the best solutions alongside top-notch support for Wix’s developers and QA, on the one hand, and to sustain the strong brand in the OSS community, on the other, sometimes puts things on a collision course between opposite interests.
Join Amit Davidi (Android/JS developer and the Detox tech lead) and Asaf Korem (iOS/JS developer) for an insightful overview of how Wix utilized the small (yet talented) team in order to find the right balance between the internal and external worlds.
