WebdriverIO is a test automation framework, for e2e as well as unit and component testing in the browser, that allows you to run tests based on the WebDriver and WebDriver BiDi as well as Appium automation technology. It provides support for your favorite BDD/TDD test framework and will run your tests locally or in the cloud using Sauce Labs, BrowserStack, TestingBot or TestMu AI (Formerly LambdaTest).
