Howdy Appium users!
We’ve recently enabled a server-side execution for Appium test runs at Testdroid Cloud. This basically means that you don’t have to configure desired caps for tests and you can run the script simultaneously even on hundreds of devices. We’ve noticed it will reduce the execution time (and generally the time spent on configuring caps) significantly. If you are interested to give it a try, please let me know.
For all details of implementation and more, you can learn more about it in our recent blog post.
All feedback and comments about this sort of use case are welcome!
