I recently wrote a blog post about Appium with real devices and using that combo to test mobile games (I used Clash of Clans as an example) with image recognition features:

Appium seems to be an instrumental choice for all mobile game developers - any thoughts from ecosystem about this? Or any other best practices on this field?

Yes, absolutely. The code needs some cleaning first :slight_smile:
