It's hard to say - there are so many options here.

If auth specifically is the target that's a very well defined workflow, 
and there are some choices.  I read this article a while back when I 
thought i needed that, then it almost immediately ended up being Someone 
Else's Problem and I dropped it. See if this gives you any ideas for 
your case:

but if the target is to simulate the physical interaction with the app - 
screen or mouse events like taps, drags, clicks etc. then you really do 
need Selenium (not something I've ever done anything with, so no 
pointers from me :-( )
