Hi,

I’m using latest Appium java client 4.0. I want to set the package name using below statement but APP_ACTIVITY is not available in MobileCapabilityType. Hence the error when using below statement. Please help.

desiredCapabilities.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP_ACTIVITY, “com.myapp.android”);

@Bharath_Madishetti: From 4.0, this is moved to specific to android package:

github.com

appium/java-client/blob/master/src/main/java/io/appium/java_client/remote/AndroidMobileCapabilityType.java#L32


* The list of Android-specific capabilities.
* Read:
* https://github.com/appium/appium/blob/1.5/docs/en/writing-running-appium/caps.md#android-only
*/
public interface AndroidMobileCapabilityType extends CapabilityType {
   /**
    * Activity name for the Android activity you want to launch from your package.
    * This often needs to be preceded by a . (e.g., .MainActivity instead of MainActivity).
    */
   String APP_ACTIVITY = "appActivity";


   /**
    * Java package of the Android app you want to run.
    */
   String APP_PACKAGE = "appPackage";


   /**
    * Activity name for the Android activity you want to wait for.
    */
   String APP_WAIT_ACTIVITY = "appWaitActivity";

So you should use: AndroidMobileCapabilityType.APP_ACTIVITY .
