How to install appium for mac

I am new user of appium. Can anyone guide me through the process of set up for appium for mac 10.9.5.What all software need to be installed to use appium for mac?

@Arun
You have two options:

  • Option 1: simplest option; download and run the latest appium stable build for Mac OS from here: https://bitbucket.org/appium/appium.app/downloads/appium.dmg
  • Option 2: Compile and run appium from the source (this option requires a certain level of experience with shell and build tools. if you feel uncomfortable using this option, please use option 1 instead).

brew install node # get node.js
npm install -g appium # get appium
npm install wd # get appium client
appium & # start appium
node your-appium-test.js

Thank you.I tried thru first option.But when I tried to record the tests using inspector as said in one of the tutorials, I get the following error.

I have interfaced appium with iOS simulator by giving UDID and bundle ID, and I don’t know to proceed further to integrate appium with Xcode.Can u please elaborate with detailed steps.Thanks in advance.

You are using way to old version of Appium 0.8.0, please update to the latest build and check again.
