@Shubham_Agarwal…is there a known issue using Driver.findElement(By.id("…") ? Because I get the very same error as @nava790 testing out Appium with the emulator calculator. The Appium Inspector says it’s valid but executing any test fails with the line below. Is only XPath supported for Android? And it doesn’t matter if you use MobileElement or WebElement because it’s the “findElement(By.id())” logic that’s throwing the ClassCastException.
MobileElement el = _driver.findElement(By.id(“com.android.calculator2:id/digit_4”)).click();
I get the error:
org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: Returned value cannot be converted to WebElement: {ELEMENT=1}
