This document discusses dockerizing and vagrantizing Appium. It begins with an overview and then discusses visualizing the Appium installation process. It notes that installing Appium can be painful due to its dependencies. It then discusses using Docker and Docker Toolbox to provision Android Appium in containers more easily. It provides commands for pulling an Appium Docker image and running Appium in Docker containers. Finally, it briefly mentions using Vagrant and Ansible to provision Appium.
