android - 我可以在没有目标应用程序的情况下运行 Appium for mobile 吗？

Question

由于我在一个与许多应用程序（而不是单个目标应用程序）一起工作的平台上工作，我发现目标应用程序的选择对我的需求来说效率低下。我想知道我是否可以做些什么来避免它。

我想自由运行，向 iOS 和 Android 真机发送 UI 命令，包括从另一个应用程序（如 Play Store、Apple Store、Test Flight 等）安装一个应用程序

谢谢您的帮助，

大卫。

Answer 1

The rule is: 1 Webdriver instance per application.

You can run Appium's server with no --app argument by making sure auto-launch is set to false, and not setting bundleId or app.

Then, in your client/test framework, you use several webdrivers, configured to use different desired capabilities, to tie it all together under a single test case/suite.

The solution:

• You may have a test suite that sets desired_capabilities to launch the Safari app, then you install the app, then you quit the webdriver.

• Then you change the desired_capabilities to point to the bundle_id of the new app, launch another webdriver instance, do your tests, quit the webdriver..

• Then you change the desired_capabilities to point to (etc., etc.)

  driver = webdriver.new(url, desired_capabilities)
  // do some stuff
  driver.quit()
  
  desired_capabilities['app'] = 'company.app.com'
  driver = webdriver.new(url, desired_capabilities)
  // do some stuff
  driver.quit()
  
  desired_capabilities['app'] = '/path/to/application.app'
  driver = webdriver.new(url, desired_capabilities)
  // do some stuff
  driver.quit()
