Hi,
> We are trying to run test case on iPad(Not Emulator, a real device connected via USB) Safari browser(Not RxBrowser) through Appium web driver from Windows 8.1 using Ranorex 8.3.1.
> Is it possible to test the web application on iPad device(which is connected through USB) native browser(Safari) from Windows 8.1 and Ranorex 8.3.1? Or do I need Mac to achieve this(I am referring to the real iPad device, not an Emulator or Mobile device).
Thanks & Regards,
Gowtham.
iOS Testing Using Appium
Re: iOS Testing Using Appium
Hi,
It seems Mac is required in case you want to run Appium tests on real iOS device. And even then, it's somewhat complicated to setup Appium and xCode/iTunes to cooperate. You will even need to use some kind of 3rd party lib. Check this post:

Hi odklizec,
Thank you for the reply.
Kindly help me regrading the following,
> Since, Mac is not available, is there any way to test the web application on Safari? I think Safari is available for Windows as well. The latest version available for Windows is comparatively older than that of Mac.
> When I try to run on Ranorex, the Safari browser is not listed. How do I test on Safari using Windows? Is it possible?
> Is the behavior of Safari Windows is same as Safari Mac?
> To test a web application(not standalone application) on Safari from Windows, do I need .ipa file, p12 certificate?
Thanks & Regards,
Gowtham.

Re: iOS Testing Using Appium
Hi Gowtham,
Safari for Windows is too outdated to be considered "valid" as testing environment. Just, don't
If you don't want to buy a Mac, then check if a testing cloud provider might suite your needs. Something like SauceLabs or BrowserStack.
You can add the provider as a Endpoint. Start by reading this article if you are not familiar with this yet: Endpoints
If this is a pure web-application that is started from your browser, then you don't need a .ipa file.
Ofc, you need to check their pricing and make sure that it will in the long run still be cheaper than getting a Mac
