Prerequisites

Sample Tests

Clone the project (https://github.com/saikrishna321/PageObjectPatternAppium) If your application is cross-platform and you end up building a PageObjectPattern Framework. Then you can also run those tests across Android and iOS devices connected to the same Mac OSX Host.

(e.g. If you have 3 Android and 3 iOS devices connected to the same machine, you will be able to execute these test parallel on both platforms)
