Both getContextHandles() and context(contextName) methods are not working on real iPod-Touch device.
Use Case: I have iOS Hybrid app which I need to verify on real iPod-touch (9.0.2) devices. As soon as I lunch the app using Appium, I want to change my context from Native_View to WebView. For the same, I am using these methods on “AppiumDriver” object.
Environment: Appium 1.4.13, Xcode 7.1, OS: 10.10.5 and platform 9.1
NOTE: Tried to do the same thing on i-Phone simulator using same environment, its working perfectly.
