How can attach screenshots of ui test executions with android/start-emulator-and-run-tests command? about android-orb HOT 8 CLOSED

@skychiarottoa Have you tried adding abd pull to the parameter post-emulator-launch-assemble-command? This command will run after the emulator has been launched, and before commencing wait-for-emulator

from android-orb.

I will try, but the command should be run after ui tests are run. "adb pull" allows to copy "screen shots images" generated by the execution of tests.
This parameter "post-emulator-launch-assemble-command" can be used with "start-emulator-and-run-tests" command too or I have to use "run-ui-tests" command?

from android-orb.

It doesn't work, this is the output:

and here the execution of the command in config.yml

from android-orb.

Hi @skychiarottoa, can you try splitting up start-emulator-and-run-tests ? All of the commands are in the orb, but you can run create-avd followed by start-emulator then run-tests, this will allow you to run any steps after run-tests that you please. The emulator will continue to run in background until kill-emulators is run.

Ok, I wanted to avoid this solution since it seem to me in contrast with the usefulness/goal of the orb. it allows me to keep config.yml as simple as possible.
It could be useful to add a parameter "adb_pull_destination_folder" to your command.
"adb pull" can be run inside you command start-emulator-and-run-tests only if the parameter "adb_pull_destination_folder" is set.

It very usefull and common to see app's screen shot attachments when a test fails.

Il will try your solution

thx

from android-orb.

yes it works

Thanks for the update @skychiarottoa. Closing this issue out and creating a new one to add a pull destination folder parameter
