For you to understand the origin and philosophy, it is very important to understand its purpose. Initially, Appium was designed to meet mobile automation needs, according to a philosophy outlined by the following four tenets –<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Firstly, you shouldn’t have to recompile your app or modify it in any way in order to automate it.<\/li>\n
  2. Secondly, you shouldn’t be locked into a specific language or framework to write and run your tests.<\/li>\n
  3. Next, a mobile automation framework shouldn’t reinvent the wheel when it comes to automation APIs.<\/li>\n
  4. Lastly, a mobile automation framework should be open source, in spirit and practice as well as in name!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    In short, Appium is an open-source tool for automating native, mobile web, and hybrid applications on iOS mobile, Android mobile, and Windows desktop platforms.<\/p>\n
