I wrote an article on Appium for windows before , because it was a T400 in 2009, and it crashed three times when starting the Android emulator, so the company should apply for a Macbook air. The 15-inch Macbook Pro is too heavy, and only a Mac can Get the most out of Appium, supporting both Android and iOS. Okay, enough nonsense, let's get started.
1. Climbing the wall
Because there may be problems with the wall in the subsequent installation process, the problem of climbing the wall must be solved first.
For my convenience, the company provides agents.

10. Not to mention Xcode and Android SDK
11. Check the environment
Appium provides a doctor, run appium-doctor guowenxie-macbookair:~ guowenxie$ appium-doctor
Running iOS Checks
✔ Xcode is installed at /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
✖ Xcode Command Line Tools are NOT installed: Error: Command failed: No receipt for 'com.apple.pkg.CLTools_Executables' found at '/'.
Fix it? (y/n) y
Press any key to continue:
✔ Xcode Command Line Tools are installed.
✔ DevToolsSecurity is enabled.
✔ The Authorization DB is set up properly.
✔ Node binary found at /usr/local/bin/node
✔ iOS Checks were successful.
Running Android Checks
✖ ANDROID_HOME is set but does not exist on the file system at "Users/guowenxie/Documents/adt-bundle_mac-x86_64-20140702/sdk"
Appium-Doctor detected problems. Please fix and rerun Appium-Doctor.
Here you can see that my Xcode Command Line Tools is not installed. This is convenient. When you enter Y when Fix it?, you can automatically guide the installation.
The other is that the environment variable of ANDROID_HOME is not configured, so we need to configure it.
12. The bash_profile file
Mac does not have this file by default, we build one by ourselvestouch .bash_profile
vi .bash_profile
打开bash_profile文件配置ANDROID_HOME和JAVA_HOME
export ANDROID_HOME="/Users/guowenxie/Documents/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20140702/sdk"
export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home)
source .bash_profile
好了，再次运行appium-doctorguowenxie-macbookair:~ guowenxie$ appium-doctor
