To test an Appium test package locally, you would set the desired capabilities.

An example of what that might look like for Android is:

{ "platformName": "Android", "platformVersion": "11.0", "deviceName": "Find device name using `adb devices`", "automationName": "uiautomator/uiautomator2", "app": "/path/to/my.apk" }

Here is a link to the samples that appium provides on their github.

Generally speaking, you wouldn't follow this pattern for testing on Device Farm. That is; you should develop the tests locally and then test on Device Farm.

I hope this helps. Feel free to let me know if there are any additional questions.
