Windows Application Driver is a service that enables Selenium-like UI test automation for Windows applications, including UWP, WinForms, WPF, and Win32 apps. It runs as a local or remote server listening for Appium/Selenium-style automation requests on Windows 10 PCs.

Use cases

  • automate ui tests for windows desktop applications
  • test uwp apps with appium
  • run e2e tests for winforms and wpf apps in ci
  • drive a win32 app ui programmatically for testing
  • set up selenium grid testing for windows apps

When to choose

  • you need Selenium/Appium-style UI automation for Windows applications
  • you want to run UI tests in CI pipelines like Azure DevOps
  • you need to test UWP, WinForms, WPF, or Win32 apps with one tool

When to avoid

  • you are testing web applications rather than native Windows apps
  • you need a tool with active feature development rather than maintenance
  • your target platform is not Windows 10
