We use Couchbase Mobile in the backend of our iOS app, does anybody know if Appium has the capabilities to go beyond verifying the front-end UI and also verify the back-end DB has correctly processed the request?

Hi @lionel

Appium is limited to Front-End UI only.

To check whether the DB has been updated correctly following any DB transactions, you will have to use the built-in SQL/DB package of the language (Java, C#, Python etc.) you are using in order to query the DB and compare the values with those you expect to be updated in the DB.
