Appium Python VI: Managing Apps and activity

Manage Apps 1. Put the current app in the background

Once executed, the app will be placed in the background at a specific time. For example, this is 5 seconds, and after 5 seconds, the app will be back in the foreground.

Driver.background_app (5)

Official Website Example:

Driver.background_app (1) sleep (2= Driver.find_element_by_name ('Animation  ') assertisnotnone (EL)

2. Check if the app is installed

Check that the device is currently installed with an app, which is checked by the app.

The parameters required here are the package name of the application, and the following is the name of the package that is known. The method returns TRUE or False.

driver.is_app_installed ('com.zhihu.android')

3. Install the App

Install an app on your device. parameter is the path to the app apk file.

Driver.install_app ('zhihu_521.apk')

In fact, the implementation is: adb install zhihu_521.apk

Official Website Example:

Assertfalse (driver.is_app_installed ('io.selendroid.testapp')) Driver.install_app ('/users/isaac/code/python-client/test/apps/selendroid-test-app.apk') Asserttrue (driver.is_app_installed ('io.selendroid.testapp'))

4. Uninstall the App

Uninstall an app on your device. parameter is the package name of the app.

Driver.remove_app ('com.zhihu.android')

In fact, the implementation is: ADB uninstall com.zhihu.android

Official Website Example:

Asserttrue (driver.is_app_installed ('com.example.android.apis')) driver.remove_ App ('com.example.android.apis') assertfalse (driver.is_app_installed ( ' Com.example.android.apis '))

5. Close the app

Close the app defined by Desired_caps.

Driver.close_app ()

6. Launch the App

Launches the app defined by the Desired_caps.

Driver.launch_app ()

Official Website Example:

 el = driver.find_element_by_name ( "  Animation   " ) Assertisnotnone (EL) Driver.close_app ();  try  : Driver.find_element_by_name (  " animation   " )  except   Exception as E:  pass  #   should not exist  driver.launch_app () el  = Driver.find_element_by_name ("  animation   " ) Assertisnotnone (EL)  

7. Get the applied string

In practice, the session ID of the conversation is returned.

Driver.app_strings

Printed out, similar to the following results:

<bound method Webdriver.app_strings of <appium.webdriver.webdriver.webdriver (session="  Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx") >>

8. Reset

Driver.reset ()

Official Website Example:

el = Driver.find_element_by_name ('App') El.click () Driver.reset () Sleep (5  = Driver.find_element_by_name ('App') assertisnotnone (EL)

Activity1. Get Current Activity

Driver.current_activity

For example, the following program:

 fromAppiumImportWebdriverdesired_caps={}desired_caps['PlatformName'] ='Android'desired_caps['platformversion'] ='4.2.2'desired_caps['devicename'] ='Android Emulator'desired_caps['Apppackage'] ='com.zhihu.android'desired_caps['appactivity'] ='com.zhihu.android.app.ui.activity.MainActivity'Driver= Webdriver. Remote ('Http://localhost:4723/wd/hub', desired_caps) b=driver.current_activityPrint(b)

The results of the operation are as follows:

. app.ui.activity.MainActivity

2. Activate activity

Open an activity in the current app, or launch a new app and open an activity.

The first parameter here is the package name of the activity to start, and the second parameter is the activity name to start.

Driver.start_activity ('com.example.android.apis'. Foo')

For example, the following program:

#Coding=utf-8 fromAppiumImportWebdriverdesired_caps={}desired_caps['PlatformName'] ='Android'desired_caps['platformversion'] ='4.2.2'desired_caps['devicename'] ='Android Emulator'desired_caps['Apppackage'] ='com.zhihu.android'desired_caps['appactivity'] ='com.zhihu.android.app.ui.activity.MainActivity'Driver= Webdriver. Remote ('Http://localhost:4723/wd/hub', Desired_caps)Print(driver.current_activity) driver.start_activity ('Com.android.calculator2','. Calculator')Print(driver.current_activity)

The printing results are as follows:

. app.ui.activity.MainActivity.Calculator

You can see the activity at the beginning of the active or the known activity, after initiating the activity of the calculator, the current activity becomes the activity of the calculator.
