clear all notification before:

    }
    System.out.println("  notifications cleared");

get 6 digit SMS verification code from notification:

What is import com.xxxx.base.Page;

5

@dduphorn mine Page class which i extend with AndroidPage or iOSPage

6

Thanks, I figured it out. I don’t use page class, but I will look into it.

I was able to get the notification text using parts of your code. - android:id/big_text

7

What is isPhone() Method?

8

just same custom function to check are we with tablet or phone… already do not remember the implementation

9

@Aleksei could you please help me with page class for android I am not able to find it.

10

Could you pls help with this page class

11

BasePage in my code contains simple things like:

    final public static int DEFAULT_WAIT_TIME = 20; // default look for elements

    public void setDefaultTiming() {
        PageFactory.initElements(new AppiumFieldDecorator(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(DEFAULT_WAIT_TIME)), this);
    }

    public void setLookTiming(int sec) {
        PageFactory.initElements(new AppiumFieldDecorator(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(sec)), this);
    }

    // plus any implementation of used commands: tap, getText, setValue, hideKeyboard and so on
    // as far as implementation  changes quite often (specially touch/tap) plus there are several way how to do it you can use any latest that you are comfortable with

    protected <T> boolean clearInput(T el) {
        try {
            ((WebElement) el).clear();
            return true;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            return false;
        }
    }

    protected <T> boolean setValue(T el, String text) {
        Logger.log("text '" + text + "'");
        boolean result = false;
        try {
            ((WebElement) el).sendKeys(text);
            result = true;
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            Logger.logError(ex.getMessage());
        }
        return result;
    }

    public <T> String getText(T el) {
        try {
            return ((WebElement) el).getText();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            return null;
        }
    }

   // .....

PS minor note: code that 7 years old may by too old for today and possibly needs update.
