You can run as many containers in single machine i.e, as many parallel tests in single host machine without any special requirement. Rest, everything will be taken care by docker. You can maintain all your test dependencies and run environment in a single file i.e, Dockerfile.

All you need to do is install docker which is so easy. Actually, you donвЂ™t need to install them at all. You donвЂ™t need to think about what nodejs version, android sdk version is installed. If you dockerize your tests, you donвЂ™t need to think about run environment. Nobody wants to work like this and this is one of the main reason for developers getting demotivated easily and ending up not writing tests at all. In case, if you want to scale your run environment i.e, machines running appium test then you will have to provision all those machine with appium dependencies i.e, android-sdks, nodejs etc etc. And then start appium driver on corresponding server ports. Without docker, if you try to run your test parallel, you will need to start n number of appium server on different ports, you will also have to set different bootstrap ports, chromedriver ports etc etc. The only way, you can make it fast is by parallelisation, that is why selenium community developed selenium grid. As you may have also noticed while working with appium, that mobile testing is too slow compare to browser testing. The problem which docker solves in case of appium or other selenium based test is parallelisation. I will try to summarise all the benefits again here.Дocker itself is a big topic, I cannot explain everything about it here. Well, if you read the tutorial thoroughly, you will get all your answers. You can check if device is mounted by running sorccu/adb container You can run any docker command in VM, since docker is already installed and running in background.Д§.

Update Vagrantfile according to your filtersД¦.

You can also use the Vagrantfile provided by me in the repository. This will give you more flexibility to control VM environment and adding filters before boot. I will suggest you to use vagrant to create a new VM and run docker containers. I donвЂ™t think it can mount it after boot is already completed. I think Virtual Box need this information(Usb Filters) at the time of booting so that it can mount hostвЂ™s device drive. It may be because you are adding filters after VM is already booted. I can only guess what may be causing problem in your environment. Personally, I have never used it and I am not a big fan of it. Oh, so you are using DockerвЂ™s tool box for OS X.
