Actually Automation Settings are the desired capabilities that need to be added to the Appium test script in order tests to be executed on the Kobiton device. Kobiton provides the so-called Automation Settings for each device on which you want to run tests. The diagram below shows the communication between a machine used to create test scripts, Kobiton server and machine where test devices are connected.

Automate from A-Z: Kobiton automatically cleans your test apps and data after the session ends.Test sessions history: Kobiton preserves all automation executions, including commands, logs, screenshots and metadata.in order to run the tests on Kobiton device only the device capabilities needs to be changed so you don’t need to use specific framework like on the other test cloud platforms. No change to your automation scripts: Execute automation tests on Kobiton devices by updating the device settings to your required configuration, i.e.When compared to other test cloud platforms the main differences of Kobiton are:

Kobiton is a mobile cloud platform that enables users to perform manual or automated testing on physical iOS and Android devices. In this article we describe the steps needed for running Appium Java tests on Kobiton Test Cloud service and Jenkins configuration for automated test execution on Kobiton and collecting test results in Jenkins.
