How to use Appium Inspector with 1.6.0, Xcode 8, iOS 10, Real Device

maesiva · October 21, 2016, 4:47pm

Dear Fellow Testers,

I recently migrated to Xcode 8 and hence the Appium 1.6.0 (command mode without GUI).

I’m able to launch the app on iOS 10 device and issue is to locate the elements on the UI.

Is anyone able to use the Appium inspector from previous versions (1.5.3), while putting a breakpoint in the test code that uses command mode of appium ?

For me, appium GUI says "could not identify the session, start a session… " popup.
Please share the steps to inspect. Thanks in advance!

Regards,
maesiva

Check this thread for a possible answer:

@mcroff states that he had to make sure the settings in the GUI were correct, and then it worked properly.

@maesiva

Currently, appium 1.6 is not available in GUI to inspect the elements, but there is workaround you can get the elements.

Try this :

Hi Team,

I am trying to automate my iOS Mobile Application with Appium

Right now, I am having Xcode 8.1, Appium 1.6 and iOS iPhone 5s running on 10.2. Trying to use same steps as given in the video but when I am trying to select the iPhone I have connected to mac in the Accessibility Inspector it says

“Device not setup
This device must be setup for development using Xcode.”

What shall I do here ?

Please help =.

The video is really helpful.

Thank you,
Rashmi

Hi,

Have a look at this link. Make sure you complete all the steps mentioned here.

rashmivn2016 · January 12, 2017, 11:07am

Hey

I found the solution on internet.

Close the Xcode first
Download the 10.1 / 10.2 (14C89) or both folder from gDrive - https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B1zDx_ygUbjhZlR4Xzc3WElzcTg
Copy the extracted 10.1, 10.2 (14C89) folders to this directory/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport
Open Xcode again and wait to sync
Run on iOS 10.1~10.2.1 devices - Voilà

This was the issue with the Device support platform in my Xcode which is resolved by providing the required platform to it!!!

Thank you for your support!!

I am going ahead and checking the further steps given in the video.

Thank you!
-Rashmi

Hi Team,

I am able to get all the steps done until video 6:55.

When I run the application as Java it gives below error -

I need your help team.

Please look into this…

Hi @anish10110,

I followed the appium-xcuitest-driver manual instructions and all works perfectlty. The xcodebuild command got me this output:

2017-01-16 21:53:04.427 XCTRunner[1400:230052] Built at Jan 16 2017 20:36:04

2017-01-16 21:53:04.571 XCTRunner[1400:230052] Listening on USB

But when I tried to run the accessibility inspector got me the same error that @rashmivn2016.

Can you help me?

Thanks!

anish10110 · January 17, 2017, 1:58am

I am using Appium 1.5.3 UI to identify the elements on the screen. I have not tried the method mentioned in the video. Can you please check with Appium 1.5.3 and see if it works? Steps -

Start Appium server from terminal using Appium 1.6.x
Open Appium 1.5.3 UI.
Keep the same settings in Appium 1.5.3 that you have set while running Appium 1.6.x (server address, port, UDID etc should be same)
Then run the inspector from Appium 1.5.3. It should display your app in Appium inspector.

I have been using this method and haven’t faced any issues with it.

wreed · January 17, 2017, 6:42am

In the capabilities quoted above, you’ve misspelled ‘version’ as ‘verion’. The next line complains that,

Could you see if it works with the spelling change? I can also see the misspelling the the code you quoted:

rashmivn2016 · January 17, 2017, 9:45am

Thank you so much for reply wreed !!

Yes I tried with correction but it is giving me the same error .

	capabilities.setCapability("version", "1.0");

May be something is still missing…

@anish10110

Hello

Greetings for the day!

I tried the steps as you have mentioned but getting error as below while launching inspector -

Could Not Launch Appium Inspector

Could not get list of sessions from Appium Server

Be sure the Appium server is running with an application opened by using the “App Path” parameter in Appium.app (along with package and activity for Android) or by connecting with selenium client and supplying this in the desired capabilities object.

Thank you,
-Rashmi

rashmivn2016 · January 17, 2017, 2:13pm

Thank man for your quick response.

I’m using nvm with node 7.4. When I tried to use appium desktop 1.5.3 with appium 1.6 nothing happen, I dont got any output in the console.

I will check the permissions in the appium folder and then tell you what happen.

pascencio · January 17, 2017, 5:55pm

@anish10110

I folowed your instructions, but the appium console got me these error:

{ SessionNotCreatedError: A new session could not be created. Details: Appium's IosDriver does not support xcode version 8.2.1. Apple has deprecated UIAutomation. Use the "XCUITest" automationName capability instead.

How can I set the automationName in the appium 1.5.3 UI?

wreed · January 17, 2017, 6:11pm

ENOENT error is that the file (‘idevice_id’) either doesn’t exist or is not in your $PATH.

You can check to see if it’s installed by opening a terminal and typing, ‘idevice_id’. It should print a usage like this:

Usage: idevice_id [OPTIONS] [UDID]
Prints device name or a list of attached devices.

  The UDID is a 40-digit hexadecimal number of the device
  for which the name should be retrieved.

  -l, --list		list UDID of all attached devices
  -d, --debug		enable communication debugging
  -h, --help		prints usage information

Homepage: <http://libimobiledevice.org>

If it does not print the above message, you need to install the libimobiledevice package:

If you do get the usage, then I would suspect that your IDE is not reading your $PATH correctly. But I don’t know what IDE you are using. You should do a google search on something like:

<your ide name> environment variables

anish10110 · January 18, 2017, 3:37am

Hi @pascencio,

I am not setting this property in Appium 1.5.3. In Appium 1.5.3, I’m only setting App Path, Force Device, Platform Version, UDID, Server and Port.

When running my scripts, I’m adding an extra Desired Capability as given below. resolves your error when you run the scripts.

capabilities.setCapability("automationName", "XCUITest");

rashmivn2016 · January 19, 2017, 4:01pm

Hey!!

it was really great to have that help note!

After trying out I was able to run the commands but when I am running the last command
brew install -s --HEAD libimobiledevice ideviceinstaller

it works but at the end it breaks down…

I am checking on the same if you have any suggestion I appreciate it… Thank you so much for your wonderful help!!

I did a quick search on the errors. Although this is not exactly what is happening to you, I wonder if the solution would help:

brew uninstall ideviceinstaller
brew install --HEAD ideviceinstaller

I think the ‘uninstall’ first is the key to the issue.

You can read up on it here:

question

`ideviceinstaller` keeps returning `Segmentation fault: 11` whenever I try to in…stall an `.ipa` (I've tried on an iPhone and an iPad, both running iOS 7). Even the simple command `ideviceinstaller -l` gives this error. Sometimes a dialog appears on the device asking me if I want to trust the computer but clicking on 'Trust' doesn't solve the problem. If I run `idevicepair unpair` and try again, sometimes, the output is `Could not connect to lockdownd. Exiting.` instead of the segmentation one. I'm on Mavericks (OS X 10.9.2) and to install the tools I did: ``` brew install libimobiledevice brew install ideviceinstaller ``` ![screenshot 2014-03-18 18 01 00](https://f.cloud.github.com/assets/246079/2451551/6dd8672e-aec7-11e3-82a6-4c87195edd6b.png)
