Kobiton open sources its script generation tool for Appium

The mobile testing company Kobiton today announced that it is open-sourcing its Appium script generation tool in an effort to enable its users to contribute back and improve on it. 

Appium itself is already an open-source project, providing a framework for automated testing across a variety of platforms. Kobiton’s tool provides the opportunity for more automation by allowing testers to automate the process of creating the test scripts. 

According to Kobiton, using the script generation tool, developers can write a 30-step script in about 10 minutes, compared to as long as four hours if using a manual approach. 

“Kobiton’s decision to open source its script generation tool is a strategic move that aligns with current trends in software development: collaboration, automation and accelerated delivery,” said Sean Barry, CEO of Kobiton. “Being the first to market with an AI-powered Appium script generator from manual test sessions and offering it via open source positions Kobiton as an innovator. This move could attract attention from the broader mobile app development and testing community, potentially leading to increased adoption of Kobiton’s other offerings.”

Kobiton’s CTO Frank Moyer added: “With the engine currently supporting a significant range of Appium-compatible languages, open-sourcing our script generator marks a strategic step forward. This move not only facilitates broader language and framework support but also empowers the community to tailor scripts to their specific needs. We’re inviting collaboration to advance automation testing, driving innovation and adaptability in a field that’s constantly evolving.”

2022: The year of hybrid work

Remote work was once considered a luxury to many, but in 2020, it became a necessity for a large portion of the workforce, as the scary and unknown COVID-19 virus sickened and even took the lives of so many people around the world.  Some workers were able to thrive in a remote setting, while others felt isolated and struggled to keep up a balance between their work and home lives. Last year saw the availability of life-saving vaccines, so companies were able to start having the conversation about what to do next. Should they keep everyone remote? Should they go back to working in the office full time? Or should they do something in between? Enter hybrid work, which offers a mix of the two. A Fall 2021 study conducted by Google revealed that over 75% of survey respondents expect hybrid work to become a standard practice within their organization within the next three years.  Thus, two years after the world abruptly shifted to widespread adoption of remote work, we are dec...
