1. It's open source which supports range of languages, operating systems and languages. Well suited for Android and IOS mobile automation. Supports all kinds of apps, which makes it flexible and robust mobile testing tool 2. It is less appropriate where we need intercept network call to verify the API calls. Extensive coding experience is required to work AppiumIncentivized
It is a strong fit for end-to-end acceptance and regression testing inside the browser.Incentivized
It uses WebDriver API so it makes it easy to use for former web test automation engineers.It can be managed via the command line via an extensive set of parameters.It handles implicit waits at the server side that is especially valuable in distributed infrastructure.Incentivized
Async operations for browser-based validation tests. This kind of feature is a must-have for building tests to scale.Incentivized
Element browser sometimes is unreliable and has sporadic fails.Appium running is a bit slow, compared to tests written with Appium and with Espresso or XCTest.Incentivized
It would be great to see the Protractor API implemented successfully inside a non-Angular web application.Incentivized
If you're an Apple developer, you use Xcode. It's practically a forced necessity. For system testing though, it doesn't have to be. You can have your development team focus on unit and integration tests in their platform and another team automate acceptance tests with a language they are more familiar with.Incentivized
Cypress.io is an alternative end-to-end test framework that does NOT use Selenium. Since I've only evaluated this tool as a possible solution, my estimation of its performance against Protractor is incomplete. However, if you and your team are looking for automation solutions outside of the Selenium scope, then Cypress.io may be a good fit given the problems you're trying to solve.Incentivized
Appium is open source, so it's free. That's budget friendly right there.The ability to write mobile automation tests has saved considerable time for our manual test team, but that is true with most automation tests.We use Sauce Labs with our other automation, but Appium works great with Sauce Labs, as well, if I needed to run on emulators and simulators.Incentivized
Increased the number of reliable end to end tests inside my test suites.Decreased the number and frequency of false-positive test runs/results.Incentivized
