Finding and interacting with elements

Appium supports a subset of the WebDriver locator strategies:

• find by "tag name" (i.e., ui component type)
• find by "name" (i.e., the text, label, or developer-generated ID a.k.a 'accessibilityIdentifier' of an element) NOTE: the "name" locator strategy will be deprecated on mobile devices, and will not be a part of Appium v1.0
• find by "xpath" (i.e., an abstract representation of a path to an element, with certain constraints)
