Somebody said to me 'python does not do automation for android app, as the python stack does not exist in android OS'.
Is it true?
Is Appium based on Android instrumentation framework?
Are there any drawbacks of using Python for writing my test cases? Should I use some other language?
Appium for Android is based on the UIAutomator framework. Selendroid is based on instrumentation.
There are no drawbacks to using python, Appium works with all languages with Selenium/WebDriver bindings which includes python, node.js, objective-c, java, c#, ruby, and more.
