In Appium document http://appium.io/docs/en/commands/device/network/toggle-wifi/ i see that espresso supports this feature but i am facing error. Can someone help me out?

@mykola-mokhnach any suggestions?

Thanks,

It is impossible to implement such functionality with Espresso, since wifi disconnection would immediately terminate the connection to Espresso driver itself and would render it to an undefined state.

Thanks @mykola-mokhnach. So this means even closeapp or terminateapp cannot be implemented using espresso? It would simple terminate the session am i right?

Correct. Espresso stuff is actually injected into the application under test. So as soon as the application stops working the connection to this server is terminated as well.
