Explore everything on mobile test automation, organized by topic. Whether you're just getting started with Appium, looking to sharpen your locator strategy, or want to understand how AI is reshaping mobile testing — find exactly what you need to build faster, more reliable automation.
A single misconfigured capability can stop your Appium session before it even starts. This guide covers the most important ones for UiAutomator2 and XCUITest — what they do, when you need them, and how to put them together into a working session configuration.
The locator strategy you choose directly affects how fast your tests run and how often they break. This guide covers every strategy available for Android and iOS — with honest performance comparisons and clear guidance on when to use each one.
Most people use Appium Inspector to find locators and nothing else. But it has a gesture builder, a code recorder, a command executor, and two interaction modes that most people never discover. This guide covers all of it.
iOS setup is the step where most beginners get stuck. Xcode, simulators, WebDriverAgent, signing certificates — this guide explains what each piece does and gets you running without the guesswork.
Getting Android ready for Appium involves more steps than most people expect. This guide walks you through every one of them — Android Studio, SDK, emulator, drivers — so your first session actually starts.
Appium 3.x changed the installation process significantly — and most guides online are still written for older versions. This is the beginner-friendly setup guide that's actually up to date.

Most Appium beginners write test scripts before they understand the UI they're automating. Appium Inspector solves that — this guide shows you how to connect it to a real app and start finding locators without writing a single line of code.
