WinAppDriver - License - MIT or Not

[Vijay-Venkataraman]

When i come to the project page - It says MIT License. When i see FAQ - It says it is Not Open Source. Which is true here? Can anyone help me with this?

Hi @Vijay-Venkataraman,

Everything that is available via the GitHub source (samples, tests, and UI Recorder) are licensed using the MIT license.

This doesn't mean that WinAppDriver is entirely open sourced or is currently available as an OSS.

Thanks

Thanks for the clarification. In that context how can it be used in an Organization. Can it be used in an organization. Can it be shipped as part of deliverable to be installed in other machines?

How do i know about it.

Kind Regards, Vijay Venkataraman

Hi @Vijay-Venkataraman,

It would depend on your organization, but I don't see any licensing issue with installing WinAppDriver on your organization's machines, or it being shipped as a deliverable assuming it is abiding by the restrictions set by the MIT license.

Thanks
