Can appium be detected as bot?


Hi i just discovered appium and it looks promising to use on my next project Basically i want to use real android phones and emulate chrome to visit and perform actions on specific websites like login etc My question is can appium be detected as a bot? Does it share variables that can be detected just like in selenium? If yes what do i need to change modify to the web driver? And what about emulator case?

I tested the website and logged in fine but im worry more about long-term.

I'm fairly new to this and did not see a same question online Thanks


Solution

  • Appium is black-box automation tool, so all the interactions are done without your app/ device modification. I don't see a case when its session can be detected as bot. However it cannot handle Captcha, FaceID, FingerPrint, etc. so you should be precise on what scenarios you want to automate.
