Usage
The way to start a session using the Mac driver is to include theplatformNamecapability in your new session request, withthe value Mac. Also, ensure that you set the deviceName capability to Macas well. Of course, you must also include appropriate platformVersion andapp capabilities, at a minimum.
Getting AppiumForMac
Currently, this driver does not ship with the AppiumForMac binary, which means,in order to automate Mac apps you must manually install the AppiumForMacapplication and grant it the appropriate OS X Accessibility permissions.
To Install Appium for Mac:1. Download a release and unzip the application into your /Applications folder2. Follow the brief supplemental installation instructions to enable Appium to have access to OS X's Accessibility APIs
