When testing mobile web applications with Appium, what are the advantages and disadvantages of using real devices versus emulators/simulators?
- Real devices provide accurate performance metrics.
- Emulators/simulators offer faster test execution.
- Real devices may have diverse network conditions.
- Emulators/simulators replicate real-world scenarios better.
Testing on real devices allows experiencing diverse network conditions, which can be a disadvantage as it introduces variability in testing. Emulators/simulators, on the other hand, may not accurately replicate all real-world scenarios but provide faster test execution. Weighing the pros and cons is essential based on project requirements.
