Explain the risks associated with Appium testing.

There are many risks associated with Appium testing which are as follows :

• Availability of skilled resources: Automation testing demands-resources which must be skilled and have some knowledge about programming.
• Cost of automation is high initially: The cost of automation is initially too high as it includes many things such as cost of automation tools to be purchased, training and maintenance of various test scripts.
• First, the UI has to be fixed mandatorily before automation: Before automation, it is compulsory to fix the user interface and keep a check whether the UI is changing extensively and the cost of automation and maintenance.
• Tests that have been run once should be stopped automating: To avoid ambiguity, test modules that have been run once should be stopped automating.
