I am trying to start Appium server programmatically. While doing that am getting error as NodeJS is either not installed or its executable not present in PATH
When i am trying to start appium server manually then the Sever starts without any issue as well as i able to execute test cases. But when i am trying to start the server programmatically then it gives error.
Error:-
[RemoteTestNG] detected TestNG version 7.3.0

Code :-
public static AppiumDriverLocalService service;
public AppiumDriverLocalService startAppiumServer() throws IOException, InterruptedException {
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(“taskkill /F /IM node.exe”);
Thread.sleep(1000);boolean flag = checkIfAppiumServerIsRunning(4723);
if(!flag) {service = AppiumDriverLocalService.buildDefaultService(); service.start(); //to stop all ports on system use this command taskkill /F /IM node.exe}
return service;}
Even i found a workaround as follows but the issue is i not able to locate Appium node and Appium JS path as shown in below code.
String Appium_Node_Path=“C:/Program Files/Appium/node.exe”;
String Appium_JS_Path=“C:/Program Files/Appium/node_modules/appium/bin/appium.js”;
AppiumDriverLocalService appiumService;appiumService = AppiumDriverLocalService.buildService(new AppiumServiceBuilder().
usingAnyFreePort().usingDriverExecutable(new File(Appium_Node_Path)).
withAppiumJS(new File(Appium_JS_Path)));
appiumService.start();
Can you please help me to overcome this issue?
Thanks in avance.
