Unable to switch to WebView

Support
1

Hi all,

I was trying to switch to the web view. But, it doesn’t happen due to casting problems…could you please help me out??

Below is my code.

import io.appium.java_client.AppiumDriver;
import io.appium.java_client.remote.MobileCapabilityType;
import io.appium.java_client.remote.MobilePlatform;

import java.io.File;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.Set;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;

import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.CapabilityType;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterTest;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeTest;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class mani {

AppiumDriver driver;

@BeforeTest
public void setUp() throws MalformedURLException {
DesiredCapabilities cap= new DesiredCapabilities();

 System.out.println("change");

// cap.setCapability(“automationName”, “Selendroid”);
// cap.setCapability(“device”, “Selendroid”);

	cap.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_NAME,MobilePlatform.ANDROID);

	cap.setCapability("browserName", "Android");
	cap.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.DEVICE_NAME, "Android Emulator");
	cap.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_VERSION, "4.4");
	
	
	cap.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP_PACKAGE, "gsm.eyc.com");
	cap.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP_ACTIVITY, "gsm.eyc.com.GSMActivity");

driver = (AppiumDriver) new RemoteWebDriver(new URL(“http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub”), cap);
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(15, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
}

@Test
public void Sum() {
// WebDriverWait wait=new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
// wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.id(“gsm.eyc.com:id/username”)));
// driver.findElement(By.id(“Continue”));

WebDriverWait wait=new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);

// driver.findElement(By.name(“New Releases”)).click();

Set<String> contextNames = driver.getContextHandles();
for (String contextName : contextNames) {
  System.out.println(contextName);
  if (contextName.contains("WEBVIEW")){
    driver.context(contextName);
  }
}

}

@AfterTest
public void End() {
driver.quit();
}
}
