What is Appium?
Appium is a popular open source test automation framework for testing native, hybrid and mobile web apps (iOS, Android, and Windows). Appium uses Selenium WebDriver to drive interactions.
Appium and Continuous Testing
Today’s enterprises are developing and deploying new “customer experience” enhancements via mobile apps at an unprecedented rate. Continuous Testing with Appium is critical for ensuring that each mobile interface is robust and seamlessly interacts with the functionality provided by your core applications.
Since “mobile” transactions span mobile, APIs, and other components that might all be evolving at different paces, it is important to use Appium testing in the context of end-to-end tests.
