Appium Automation Testing (3)--appium framework and process Introduction

<span id="Label3"></p>Appium Introduction<p><p>Appium is a mobile-based automation framework that can be used to test native applications, mobile Web applications and hybrid applications, and is cross-platform. Available for iOS and Android as well as for Firefox operating Systems. Native apps are apps written using an Android or iOS sdk, which is a web app that resembles a safari app or Chrome app or class browser app in Ios. Hybrid application refers to the application of webview, which is applied to Web content Interactivity.<br>What's important is that Appium is cross-platform and cross-platform, meaning that you can use a set of APIs for different platforms to write test Cases.</p></p><p><p></p></p><p><p>, Appium is divided into three main points: client side, server side, and test mobile device<br>Client side: test scripts written in various languages<br>Server Side: We install the part of the Appium tool, dedicated to listening and receiving requests from the client side, forwarding requests and controlling the mobile device to perform the test, by default turn on and listen to the 4723 interface<br>Mobile Devices: support for three types of devices, our ultimate goal: automatic execution of specified actions on the device<br>The whole process:<br>first, Install the Appium tool on a server (server side), open the process (the default 4723 interface) to listen;<br>second, write the test script, put it on the server, execute the test script (equivalent to send a command to the server Side)<br>third, The mobile device receives a command sent from the server side, performing the specified action</p></p>Appium Application and operation<p><p><strong>(i) Call the Appium process</strong><br>1, Configure the phone device parameters, tell the server side I want to set up which phone device<br>2, grab the controls applied on the phone, specify the corresponding controls to operate<br>3, the control to crawl to operate, such as click, fill in parameters, etc.<br><strong>(ii) the first step, the configuration of mobile device parameters</strong><br>Appium's desired Capabilities Basic configuration is as Follows:</p></p><pre><span style="color: #0000ff"><span style="color:
