Google terms of service issue while running tests on chrome on android

[Sam Tho G]

Hi,
I was trying to run some tests on chrome on Android using appium.
I was able to launch chrome browser on the device successfully using the new chromedriver version 2.9.
However, after launching the chrome browser, it always shows up the "Google Chrome Terms of Service" page which has the Accept and Continue button on it.
Even though I accept it multiple times, this window turns up every time I run the test.
Has anyone faced this issue?


Thanks in advance,
Sam

If Chromedriver launches Chrome, it should launch it in a mode where this doesn't pop up.

How are you starting the session?

Hi Jonathan,
Am starting appium with command "node ."
Below is my code foe setting capabilities and starting the driver.

        DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
        capabilities.setCapability("device", "Android");
        capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.PLATFORM, "Mac");
        capabilities.setCapability("app", "chrome");

        WebDriver wd = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://localhost:4723/wd/hub"),
                capabilities);

Below is the output from console:

It always launches the browser with this page.
Attaching the snapshot of the page.

Even am facing the same issue.
Has any one resolved this issue?

Thanks
Santosh

[Jonathan Lipps]

Dunno then, I'd bring it up with the chromedriver team.

Am also facing this issue. Everytime I launch my tests, Google Chrome Terms and Services page open and it signs in. How can I directly land to browser?

[Marina]

I was also facing the same issue. It worked with the following code

        DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();

        capabilities.setCapability("device","android");

        capabilities.setCapability("app","chrome");

        capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_NAME, "");
        capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.VERSION, "4.2.2");
        capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.PLATFORM, "WINDOWS");
        capabilities.setCapability("app-package", "com.android.chrome");
        capabilities.setCapability("app-activity", ".com.google.android.app.chrome.Mains");
        driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"), capabilities);

Update your Chrome on play store, it works for me.

Hey Marina,

I tried with below provided code but no luck. Any workaround for this solution.

[Marina Roche]

I tried re-producing the issue. Earlier when I did not specify the app-package and app-activity parameters it would open the terms and conditions page. After I added the app-package and app-activity parameters it started working and would open the page directly 

Now if I comment out the  app-package and app-activity parameters and run my test it is working and is not showing the terms and conditions page. 

What happens when you run the test with   app-package as "com.android.chrome" and app-activity as "com.google.android.app.chrome.Mains"  - does it still show the terms and conditions page?

Hey Marina,

Thanks for quick & prompt response. I tried with code shared by you but no luck. Code is launching chrome browser in Emulator & shows screen - Google Chrome Terms of Service. Any suggestion/solution is welcome.

Code is as follows -

        WebDriver driver = null;

        DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();

        capabilities.setCapability("platformName","android");
        capabilities.setCapability("app", "D:\\adt-bundle-windows-x86-20131030\\adt-bundle-windows-x86-20131030\\sdk\\platform-tools\\Chrome.apk");

        capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.BROWSER_NAME, "");
        capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.VERSION, "4.2.2");
        capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.PLATFORM, "WINDOWS");
        capabilities.setCapability("app-package", "com.android.chrome");
        capabilities.setCapability("app-activity", ".com.google.android.app.chrome.Mains");
        driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"), capabilities);

        System.out.println("1");
        driver.get("http://twitter.com");
        System.out.println("2");

This isn't how to use Chrome with Appium.

https://github.com/appium/appium/commits/master/docs/en/mobile-web.md shows you the right way.
