I'm trying to connect my project to AWS, but jars could not be found

Now in order to upload the generated zip file for Your Android Appium Java TestNG Tests, Please follow the below steps:

Sign in to the Device Farm console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/devicefarm.
In the list of projects, choose the option next to the project where you want to upload your tests.
If the Create a new run button is displayed, then choose it.
On the Choose your application page, choose Upload.
Browse to and choose your Android app file. The file must be an .apk file.
Now Choose Next step.
On the Configure a test page, choose Appium Java TestNG, and then choose Upload.
Browse to and choose the .zip file that contains your tests. The .zip file must follow the format described in Prepare Your Android Appium Java TestNG Tests.
Choose Next step, and then complete the remaining on-screen instructions to select devices and start the run.

@Abdul_Sathar_Beigh : Thank you for clarification, i follow those steps but the problem : the only test case i put in my project “sign in” with the correct credentials isn’t working element could not be found !

Abdul_Sathar_Beigh · January 13, 2016, 8:40am

Looks like, its the problem in your script. Download the logs and debug it.
As I can see in the above screenshot, your given xpath is not matching with the application.

Check this tutorial, you have to create a maven project first

Abdul_Sathar_Beigh · February 17, 2016, 8:52am

Hi Abhnav,

Have you created the zip.xml file?
If not, Please create the file manually in src/main/assembly. Code for zip.xml file, I have already posted above.
If yes, Please post your pom.xml…

According to the Error log, its just a path issue.

Regards,
@Abdul_Sathar_Beigh

Abhinav_Singh · February 17, 2016, 9:46am

Hi Abdul i have created and updated successfully, but i am not getting the screenshots. please tell me where should i put this code for screenshot and also what i need to change in the code.

public boolean takeScreenshot(final String name) {
String screenshotDirectory = System.getProperty(“appium.screenshots.dir”, System.getProperty(“java.io.tmpdir”, “”));
File screenshot = ((TakesScreenshot) driver).getScreenshotAs(OutputType.FILE);
return screenshot.renameTo(new File(screenshotDirectory, String.format("%s.png", name)));

Abhinav_Singh · February 17, 2016, 10:00am

i made a program to login in my application and i can not see any screenshot only two suites it is showing first is “Setup suite” and second is “Teardown suite”. what it means that my script is not running in the device farm.

I’m trying to connect my project to AWS, but jars could not be found(There was a problem processing your file. Could not find test jar)

While i try to upload my test cases in .zip format in AWS it tells me that There was a problem processing your file. Could not find test jar.

i am new to AWS,So any body help me what steps exactly i follow.
my project is java project.

emna_ayadi · March 29, 2016, 7:50am

I think you should create a Maven Project.

6127591 · March 29, 2016, 8:30am

Hi can u please provide me the steps to create maven project.

6127591 · March 30, 2016, 5:00am

Hi Can any body tell me how in AWS detecting the device name and version,
while i m running in a real device all my test cases passed,but same test cases while i m running in AWS server ,all my testcases got failed,so what should i give in device name and version .because my testcases running on different devices,and different devices having different name and version,so what should i write in my testcases so it will run in every devices.
ex:public class Test1 {

@Test(priority=0)

public void ad() throws MalformedURLException, InterruptedException {
	DesiredCapabilities c = new DesiredCapabilities();
	c.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_NAME,"");
	c.setCapability("deviceName","");
	c.setCapability("platformName","Android");
	c.setCapability("platformVersion","4.2.2");
	c.setCapability("appPackage","com.asdf");
	c.setCapability("appActivity","com.LoginActivity");

pl reply its urgent,Thanks in advance.

gaurav_bhadauria · March 30, 2016, 7:35pm

I believe you need not to provide details like deviceName , patformName etc for device farm and to test locally you need to launch appium in pre-launch mode.

" #### Driver Configuration
Remember to set up your Appium driver correctly. AWS Device Farm takes care of the configuration for you, and you don’t need to set any of the DesiredCapabilities when creating the driver. Refer to this example."

@Abhinav_Singh Did you find your problem. I am also facing the same issue. it seems nothing is happening , no script is running but on local every test is working fine.

Sravanthi_M · March 31, 2016, 2:19am

Hi Abdul .I am also facing same issue so help me.i have created and updated successfully, but i am not getting the screenshots. please tell me where should i put this code for screenshot and also what i need to change in the code.
