    What is Appium in software testing?

    Appium is an open-source structure that allows you to conduct automation testing of mobile applications on different platforms like Android, iOS, and Windows. It automates the examination for; Native Mobile Applications, Mobile Web Applications, and Hybrid Mobile Applications.

    Appium is a cross-platform testing framework that is adaptable, enabling you to write the testing code against multiple platforms such as iOS, Windows, and Android using the same API. This means you can use the same language for iOS that you have written for Android, saving lots of time and effort.

    Appium, alike to that of Selenium, offers you to write the test script in different programming languages which include Java, JavaScript, PHP, Ruby, Python, and C #. Appium is an HTTP server that is designed on the Node.js platform whose set up represents a REST (Representational State Transfer) API and implements Selenium WebDriver. It works on a client/server architecture. Appium allows you to use the available WebDriver client for firing the tests.
