C# Appium Desired Capabilities settings

I will cover Appium setup in another blog . Once the Appium setup is done ,next step is to set DesiredCapabilities for the Appium webdriver.

Below is the sample code in C#
               
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
capabilities.SetCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PlatformName, "iOS");
capabilities.SetCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PlatformVersion, "9.3");
capabilities.SetCapability(MobileCapabilityType.DeviceName, "iPhone 6");
capabilities.SetCapability(MobileCapabilityType.NewCommandTimeout,60*3);
capabilities.SetCapability(IOSMobileCapabilityType.LaunchTimeout, 60*10);
//replace with your app path
capabilities.SetCapability(MobileCapabilityType.App, "IOS app path(*.app)");  
AppiumDriver = new IOSDriver(new Uri("http://172.*.*.*:4723/wd/hub"), capabilities);
AppiumDriver.Manage().Timeouts().ImplicitlyWait(TimeSpan.FromMinutes(1));

One important point here is that you need to give  ip address of Appium server where it is running . In my case C# code is triggered from windows parallels and Appium server is running on the MAC side  so both on one box so i need to specify my mac ip address in the highlighted portion of the code.

On the side note, it is always good idea to declare ImplicitWait in the driver initialization area rather than different places in the code because implicit wait is set for lifecycle of the webdriver  (like global setting).

Why we need to test the website on different browsers ?

Every one know that we need to test the website on different browsers but in this blog post i will try to answer, why we the need to test the website on different browsers like Chrome,Firefox,Internet explorer (including Edge) ,Safari ,mobile browsers, etc. All modern browsers are built based on browser engine and java script engine and these engines are different on each browser i.e the way CSS or content displayed on the website or the way java script is executed on the browser is different .Most of the browsers adhere to the standards but there may be a case where specific CSS is not supported or specific java script function is not supported on the specific browser so we need to verify the websites on all different browsers to make sure it works fine on all different browsers.Below charts explains the browser engines and java script engines used in the most popular browsers.
