What can you do with Appium?
- [Jonathan] Why Appium? Well, you know how time-consuming and painful it is to test your mobile apps by hand. Appium is an open-source software tool that enables code-based automation of mobile apps. Automation enables much more efficient, fast, and scalable testing of apps, and Appium is built so that you have total flexibility in how you use it. You can write your Appium script in any language, for example, Java, Python, Ruby, or Javascript. Appium is cross-platform. You can use the same commands and the same tool to automate both iOS and Android mobile apps, saving you lots of time compared to other testing tools. To use Appium, you write some code in a text editor that utilizes the Appium API. Appium turns that code into actual automation behavior on a mobile device, that's how you do testing with Appium. I'm Jonathan Lipps, the project lead for Appium and founder of the Appium-focused consultancy, Cloud Grey. Join me in my LinkedIn Learning course to find out how to write code to automate and test your own mobile apps and unlock new levels of quality and efficiency in your app development cycle.
