I'm Working in appium. previously, my code doesn't work in above 5.o When I changed its working fine. android version. driver = new AndroidDriver(new URL("http://192.168.1.2:4723/wd/hub"), capabilities); above code works fine in above 5.0 android version. And the app was launch and couldn't open the app and still got the same error.

Android setup

public class AndroidSetup {

    protected AndroidDriver driver;

    protected void prepareAndroidForAppium() throws MalformedURLException {
        DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
        capabilities.setCapability("appium-version", "1.6.3");
        capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "Android");
        capabilities.setCapability("platformVersion", "6.0");
        capabilities.setCapability("deviceName", "Mi Phone");
        capabilities.setCapability("app", "/home/naveen/IdeaProjects/QberLoginPage/app/Qber_Customer_V1.6.0.apk");
        capabilities.setCapability("appPackage", "com.ionicframework");
        capabilities.setCapability("appActivity", "");
        driver = new AndroidDriver(new URL("http://192.168.1.2:4723/wd/hub"), capabilities);
    }
}

Logintest

public class Logintest extends AndroidSetup {
    
    @BeforeClass
    public void setUp() throws Exception {
        prepareAndroidForAppium();
    }
    
    @AfterClass   
    public void tearDown() throws Exception {
        driver.quit();
    }

    @Test
    public void login() {
        new Login(driver).invalidLogin();
    }
}

loginpage

public class Login extends BasePage {

    public Login(WebDriver driver) {
        super(driver);
    }

    public Login invalidLogin() {
        return new Login(driver);
    }
}

Seems like session between client and server is failing to get initiated. I noticed that URL you use for Appium server is "http://0.0.0.0:4723/wd/hub". This could be an issue, since as I understood you are running Appium on the same machine where your client scripts reside, try using "http://localhost:4723/wd/hub" instead. Or use your local host ip address "http://127.0.1.1:4723/wd/hub".

In general make sure that your Appium server is started and running. You can do this by visiting URL in browser localhost:4723/wd/hub/status. You will be able to connect to URL and see something like this:{"status":0,"value":{"build":{"version":"1.5.3","revision":null}},"sessionId":null}

PS. It strange though if you are able to initiate session with the same settings for KitKat devices. I would expect it to fail for all devices since it couldn't pass desired capabilities to server to initiate automation session.

  • THis question is resolved because appActivity name there is a space between the words.
