The Appium team has been hard at work on something we think the Appium exploiter out thither will enjoy. It & # x27; s a brand new app for Mac, Windows, and Linux called & quot;Appium Desktop& quot;: the successor to the old Appium.app and Appium.exe. Appium Desktop is a graphical frontend for running an Appium server and starting sessions to audit your applications.

One of the greatest new features of Appium Desktop is the ability to run Inspector sessions on Sauce Labs and TestObject. Simply enter in yourSauce Labs or TestObjectcredentials, set up the desired capabilities for your test appropriately, and you & # x27; ll be capable to drive your app remotely using Appium Desktop. Do you develop on Windows but want access to inspect your app on an iOS simulator? Or want to scrutinize your app on a existent Android device you don & # x27; t have locally? Appium Desktop & # x27; s cloud support is a outstanding way to get move.
