The uiautomator2 driver uses Google's UiAutomator2 technology to allow automation on a device or emulator. UiAutomator2 is the default automation engine. In iOS versions higher than 11.1, the capability is not supported and all tests will use XCUITest. This capability is only available for iOS versions 9.3 through 11.1. If you explicitly want to use UIA automation, set the automationName Appium capability to uiAutomation. The default automation method used for iOS is XCUITest. UFT Mobile enables you to run tests on iOS devices without requiring a Mac machine. When running your Appium tests through UFT Mobile, you can indicate the method of automation to use during script execution. Global installation of Node.js is not supported for Appium V2 on Windows and will cause tests running with Appium V2 to fail. Safari Driver is not supported on Linux and Windows. Note that Appium anonymous access is not supported with LDAP. For details see Lab and workspace management. When you run an Appium test anonymously, the user is assigned to the Default workspace.
