Initialize dual-framework Appium automation testing template (Java/Gradle + Node.js/WebdriverIO)

[Copilot]

This PR establishes a complete dual-framework template for Appium mobile automation testing, providing both Java/Gradle and Node.js/WebdriverIO approaches in a single repository. The implementation has been rebased with the latest main branch to combine both tech stacks.

What's Added

Java/Gradle Framework

Project Structure:

• Gradle 9.0.0 application project with Java 17 support
• Standard Maven directory layout (src/main/java, src/test/java)
• Gradle wrapper for consistent builds across environments

Dependencies:

• Appium Java Client (9.3.0) - Core mobile automation framework
• JUnit 5 Jupiter (5.12.1) - Modern testing framework with annotations
• SLF4J (2.0.13) - Comprehensive logging framework
• Allure (2.29.0) - Test reporting and documentation
• Guava (33.4.6) - Google's core Java utilities

Sample Tests (9 total):

• Framework verification tests demonstrating all dependencies work correctly
• Appium driver setup examples for Android and iOS platforms
• Logging functionality demonstrations
• URL configuration examples for Appium server connectivity

Node.js/WebdriverIO Framework (from main branch)

Setup Scripts:

• Automated installation scripts for macOS/Linux and Windows
• AVD management utilities for Android emulator setup
• Comprehensive verification tools

Configuration:

• Appium server configuration files
• Android-specific configuration templates
• WebdriverIO-based sample tests

Documentation:

• Quick start guides and troubleshooting documentation
• Development notes and setup verification tools

Unified Documentation

• Comprehensive README covering both Java and Node.js approaches with build instructions, dependency information, and usage examples
• Unified .gitignore configuration supporting both tech stacks
• Clear guidance for choosing between frameworks based on team preferences

Verification

Both frameworks are fully functional:

Java/Gradle Testing:

./gradlew build    # ✅ Builds successfully
./gradlew test     # ✅ All 9 tests pass

Node.js/WebdriverIO Testing:

npm install        # ✅ Install dependencies
npm run verify-setup  # ✅ Verify setup
npm run test:sample   # ✅ Run sample tests

Test reports are available at app/build/reports/tests/test/index.html for Java tests after running ./gradlew test.

Ready for Development

This dual-framework template provides everything needed to start developing Appium mobile automation tests with either technology stack:

• Pre-configured dependencies for both frameworks
• Working test examples in Java and Node.js
• Build and test infrastructure for both approaches
• Comprehensive documentation covering both setups
• Team flexibility to choose their preferred language and tooling

Fixes #6.

@copilot can you rebase with latest main?

Rebase completed successfully! The Java/Gradle Appium template has been rebased on top of the latest main branch (commit 134fc52). Both Node.js/WebdriverIO and Java/Gradle approaches now coexist in the same repository, with all merge conflicts resolved and builds verified.
