Atomic Talk Title: Build An Appium 2.0 Plugin In Under 8 Minutes

Part of the mission of Appium 2.0 is to make it easy for anyone to create and distribution their own drivers and plugins. This talk will walk you through the creation of a simple Node.js-based Appium 2.0 plugin in less than 8 minutes! I hope it can be useful to help kickstart your own ideas for building on top of Appium as a platform.

Takeaways:

  1. What an Appium 2.0 plugin is
  2. How to scaffold an Appium 2.0 plugin
  3. How to handle a specific WebDriver command in a plugin
  4. Where to go for more information about plugins
