(VI) use of appium 1.6and APP-inspector positioning
Abandon uiautomation from 1.6th
Switch to xcuiteest mechanism
Environmental fundamentals: above xcode8,ios9.3
1. Install the latest version 1.6.3
Install cnpm: npm install-g cnpm-- registry= https://registry.npm.taobao.org
Install appium1.6.3: cnpm install-g appium@1.6.3
two。 Install appium-xcuitest-driver dependencies
Enter the WebDriverAgent installation directory: cd / usr/local/lib/node_modules/appium/node_modules/appium-xcuitest-driver/WebDriverAgent
Run bootstrap:
Mkdir-p Resources/WebDriverAgent.bundle sh. / Scripts/bootstrap.sh-d
3. Change the script configuration:
Add this apabilities
AutomationName, "XCUITest"
Source text: https://testerhome.com/topics/6962
New positioning tool: https://macacajs.github.io/app-inspector/cn/
App Inspector is a mobile device UI viewer running on the browser side, which uses the tree state structure to view the UI layout, and can automatically generate XPath, which is convenient for script writing and generation.
Installation
$npm install app-inspector-g (it will be slow to install directly, change this command: npm install app-inspector-g-- registry= https://registry.npm.taobao.org)
Use
$app-inspector-u YOUR-DEVICE-ID
Attachment: use instruments-s to get all current equipment information
After the operation, as shown in the following figure
(1)
(2) automatically open the interface shown in figure 2 above in the browser, and check its attributes, name,class,xpath, etc., by selecting the element on the left.
The original appium 1.5 positioning is mainly based on xpath, but the positioning effect is poor with name,class_name and so on.
The success rate of localization such as name,class_name in appium 1.6is high, and xpath is almost no longer used.
