Compatible java version with appium

salim_khan · September 17, 2022, 7:48am

Hi,

I am about to set up appium so which Java version to use.

What is the officially supported and recommenced version of JAVA that can be used with APPIUM?

Are there any known compatibility issues with JAVA 18 and APPIUM ?

Thanks!

There were some issues with 18 version. As I remember with Selenium, which is actually used with test also. Better prefer 11

Did you check this? You may want to follow a tutorial or something.

salim_khan · September 18, 2022, 5:50am

Yes, it is installed in the mentioned path

wreed · September 18, 2022, 6:40pm

Then why can’t it find apksigner.jar in any of those paths?
