Appium & Jenkins Integration

Support

Hi, Im trying to integrate Appium and Jenkins. The problem i’m facing right now is to start the Appium server programmatically in Jenkins.

I noticed that alot of the solutions are for java which starts the appium server in before suite. I’m currently using javascript language for testing. Is there a way to start the appium server in javascript like it being started in java?

Hi, can you guide me through this? I’m quite new.

Please install this the project npm install --save-dev shelljs

If i use “appium”, it will start the server and just hangs there waiting…
