What differentiates Appium from other similar products?

The Appium can work with a variety of languages like Java, kotlin, and python C#. It integrates well with mobile native as well as a hybrid app. Integration with the CI/CD platform especially Jenkins is easy through a plug-in and we don't need another Appium server ( in simple terms language its tool agnostic). Appium is based on Selenium which is HTTP-based and designed to automate apps. The idea is actually very nice as automating an app, especially a review-based one isn't so different in terms of required APIs from automating a browser. Easy to understand & documentation on the website is very clearly written.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The great thing to consider about Appium is that it has no dependency on the OS of the mobile (Android or IOS).Works well with both OS platforms. Only the same API needs to be integrated. It is designed to be programmable and used with any language such as Java, Python, Ruby, and C++. Appium is a great tool source that allows the user to save a lot of time using automation compared to the manual testing effort. It has good web-driver compatibility. Selenium web driver is the best integrated as a web driver to connect the appium. Many different frameworks are there for the testing mobile platform but I found Appium cost-free and best.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Element browsing is not reliable as it creates many errors and is hard to find and solve. Need some upgrades for the same. Sometimes runs too slow compared to the other software and the support documentation needs a lot of improvement to understand rather than depending more on the support team. Sometimes application crashes due to Appium backward compatibility issues. Executors would have to wait for a longer time for the execution processor to get result.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I suggest just going for it, as the Appium tool is an excellent open-source, that helps us in automating the applications that can vary between native, hybrid, or mobile web applications. It also has the flexibility to check the performance of any app and suggest to us, that we can integrate it with any other platform. Also, it supports a number of languages C++,Python, Java.For mobile testing automation, it's really good software to go with without any second thoughts.I have worked on Appium for years now and found it a pretty straightforward tool to use, if you are looking for multiple languages support and cross-platform test cases.
