Overview

I should have done this originally, and it only takes a moment to fix, but I'm deep in finishing up one of my other branches, and I'm concerned messing with this now could cause a merge conflict later.

I'm trying to test the iOS app with Appium on AppCenter but I have a problem. In Appium latest versions Searching by name was deprecated. How can I solve this problem?

Overview

One of our customers requested this type of sample in the following ticket: https://app.intercom.io/a/apps/r33tq287/inbox/inbox/872775/conversations/15838320014

I've not set this up before, but I know it is possible based on working with other non-public samples.

Overview

Sample: https://github.com/King-of-Spades/BackdoorExample
Documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/appcenter/test-cloud/uitest/working-with-backdoors

I have an independent Backdoors sample for customers that would be worthwhile to add to our documentation.However, I need to migrate the app to this repo and then add an upload script before it will be ready.

Once I've got that set up, I'll file it as an issue here: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/appcenter-docs-pr/issues/new

• How to install Appium:

sudo npm install -g appium
(may require additional permission arguments to work. One of our engineers had to use the workaround noted here: npm/npm#17268)

• setting the jdk path in the integration-test.iml
• setting the ANDROID_HOME path per: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28296237/set-android-home-environment-variable-in-mac
• setting the path to the sample APK:
  https://github.com/King-of-Spades/AppCenter-Test-Samples/blob/master/Appium/Android/Maven/src/test/java/com/microsoft/altframeworktraining/StartAppTest.java#L33

https://github.com/King-of-Spades/AppCenter-Test-Samples/blob/e5205966d432c37b89b38f124a31978b7fd08e0b/Appium/Android/Maven/src/test/java/com/microsoft/altframeworktraining/StartAppTest.java#L33

To actually upload, Maven also needs to be installed, so that it can package the upload:

• https://maven.apache.org/install.html

Overview

Unfortunately this link is not publicly sharable at this point, but I'm including it for my reference: https://appcenter.ms/orgs/XTCTeam/apps/Swiftnotes-Appium/test/runs/77a1c67e-2cfb-4bbd-a75a-eb2b4fd0a747/0-0-0/7bd64936-8d1e-484c-aff9-063db240bb59/logs

A lot of stacktraces are shown in the log for the test run, even though the test launches and operates normally. I'm not sure why. The log page if I'm not mistaken may just be collecting some "noise" from other logging events. Here's a snippet of the stacktrace I'm seeing:
