[Question] Why use "appium-device-farm" over Selenium Grid?
See original GitHub issue@saikrishna321 @SrinivasanTarget @sudharsan-selvaraj I was pretty blown away when I gave appium-device-farm and appium-dashboard-plugin I try over the weekend. I can see a lot of benefits and use cases for using something like this over Selenium Grid, which requires a lot more overhead to maintain. I was hoping to get your takes on why this should be used over Selenium Grid (may be good to include in README as well)
Reasons to use appium-device-farm
- Native testing only (Appium)
- Easy setup for single machine infrastructure
- More session info out-of-box when coupled with
appium-dashboard
Reasons to use Grid
- Native and web app testing (Appium and Selenium)
- Supports Appium (Grid 3 only) and Selenium
