As, you can see in the above snippet, when i try to locate value e.g… ‘16’ in this case or i would like to scroll to select any other value. I am unable to select or scroll from this window. Is it possible to select value using robot framework with appium library. suggestions are most welcome.
Can u please tell how to inspect element in ios using appium 1.6.4 with ios 10
u can use appium-desktop v1.0.0 having appium 1.6.4
download link : https://github.com/appium/appium-desktop/releases/tag/v1.0.0
i am using the same appium. but i need to inspect element of youtube app. is it possible. also not able to see option to open inspector in appium 1.6.4
after launching appium u can click ‘start new session’ on the header then set your ‘desired capabilities’ tab, after setting the required capabilities, click on ‘start session’ …then appium inspector would launch.
if u fail to launch, will share the snapshot.
i tried using new session option but it failed to start return error message " not able to start webdriveragent"
webdriveragent working using commandline appium
are you using GUI version of appium (i.e. appium-desktop v1.0.0) or appium 1.6.4 command line.
both have there separate WDA.
Locate appium-desktop WebDriverAgent.xcodeproj at following location
/Applications/Appium/Contents/Resources/app/node_modules/appium/node_modules/appium-xcuitest-driver/WebDriverAgent
Open WebDriverAgent.xcodeproj in Xcode. For both the WebDriverAgentLib and WebDriverAgentRunner targets, select “Automatically manage signing” in the “General” tab, and then select your Development Team. This should also auto select Signing Ceritificate. (You have to follow same steps, while setting up WDA for appium 1.6.4 command line)
