What do you like best about Appium?

It's free and (mostly) open source. Easy to use for Test Automation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Appium?

Project setup is more complex and it does not support the low version of Android. Appium has biggest issue that the latest version GUI keep crashing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Appium solving and how is that benefiting you?

Appium is one such testing tool which allows you to write test against native, mobile web, and hybrid applications on iOS and Android platforms. This is a great resource for someone who is new to mobile testing. People can integrate appium with other tools with the help of java. I’ve used Appium and find that it is pretty good for automation testers. It can interact with the element and provide the information about the element.Whenever i have problem, i got the solution through appium community as well as through Google searches.

What do you like best about Appium?

It has enough documentation on the web to deal with projects in it, it is a multiplatform application that has revolutionized the market of applications testing thus allowing to obtain results and facilitating the work of quality assurance departments, The connection between the application and third-party software that complements it is excellent without mentioning the fact that it is an open source tool, so its implementation ends up being low cost for companies that require it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Appium?

The installation of the application in theory is somewhat complicated and requires specialized personnel as well as its initial configuration, the tests in some operating systems are slowed down too much generating an important work traffic and slowness in obtaining results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Appium:

It is ideal for any company that does require a qualified information technology department that has the ability to perform the installation of the software without problems because it requires certain knowledge Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Appium solving and how is that benefiting you?

It allows us to have a powerful mobile application testing software helping or serving as a help to the quality assurance department obtaining better results using a significant amount of man-hours Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Appium?

Appium is good in terms of compatibility with mobile (Android & iOS). The amount of references available online was enough for me to quickly get going. Though the setup can be tough for a new comer but still resources available are good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Appium?

Execution speed with the iOS. Though I won't completely blame appium for this as Apple is the main culprit here and Appium team does it's best to speedup tests. Couple of years ago tests used to take a lot of time but now it's way better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Appium solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using it for UI testing and it's is helpful in terms of our needs. Benefits:

If appium tests are written properly then mostly same scripts can be re-used for both iOS and Android which saves a lot of time. Execution on simulators, emulators and real devices is not hard if it is done on one of them (except for the iOS real device as it is problem from Apple) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Appium?

The first thing is it is open source and free. So you need not pay for your mobile testing solutions. On top of that you can integrate it with your favorite IDE like Eclipse, netbeans etc. to write the automated tests for mobile devices. You can also go for real mobile devices or simulate a specific android version using UI automator Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Appium?

It would have been great if the tool had easy setup procedure. I know that is a one time activity but still that is way too confusing and you eventually run into version mismatch problems. I do not dislike the fact but it lacks windows mobile application support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Appium:

Go ahead with this tool for your mobile automation solutions. It is cheap, reliable, robust and easy to use once the setup is done. Do not change java versions after appium installation, it will generate a lot of issues. Even Java 9 does not yet properly supports appium, you have to set some properties here and there to get started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Appium solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have a test suite of over 300 test cases with different android versions and it is all cost efficient and time efficient to automate the functional process and test the functionalities with appium. By this regression suite we are saving a lot of time and also no compromises are made in quality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Appium?

Appium has one of the best support from the devs and the community, and is overall highly active with new updates regularly. Its API is well-documented and easy to understand, and easily scalable to multiple devices and/or computers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Appium?

Sometimes a functionality you want to automate is version-sensitive to Appium and your machine environment, so you have to be especially careful with your setup if you want to reproduce it on another machine. Other times, APIs become deprecated without a clear successor, other times the Appium web server itself malfunctions mid-execution, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Appium solving and how is that benefiting you?

We used Appium to develop an automation framework intended for non-technical users. In it, we built a framework that allowed us to dynamically create and launch multiple Appium servers on one server per device connected, saved logs and video recordings, and displayed it on the web interface. Ease of use and time efficiency was achieved across all platforms with Appium that would otherwise not be possible with other automation frameworks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
