Running appium for ios from windows

[Abhijit Shelar]

Hi,

I need to run .app file on simulator on mac machine and I need to send commands from windows 7.

How it is possible using windows platform?

I have install appium on mac and start

java -jar ios-server-standalone-0.6.6-SNAPSHOT.jar -aut InternationalMountains.app on mac

Now I need to connect it from windows and run test in simulator
How I can achieve it?

using OpenQA.Selenium.Appium;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Remote;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;

namespace AppiumDriverDemo
{
    class TestiOS
    {
        private AppiumDriver driver;

        public void beforeAll()
        {
            // find the test application
            Console.WriteLine("Finding Test App");
            string appPath = _GetTestAppPath();
            Console.WriteLine("Using Test App @ \"" + appPath + "\"");

            // set up the remote web driver
            Console.WriteLine("Connecting to Appium server");
            DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
            capabilities.SetCapability("appium-version", "1.0");
            capabilities.SetCapability("platformName", "iOS");
            capabilities.SetCapability("platformVersion", "6.1");
            capabilities.SetCapability("deviceName", "iPhone Simulator");
            capabilities.SetCapability("app", appPath);
            driver = new AppiumDriver(new Uri("http://192.168.1.28:5555/wd/hub"), capabilities);
        }
       
        public void afterAll()
        {
            // shutdown
            driver.Quit();
        }

        public void RegularWebdriverMethodsTestCase()
        {
            // enter random numbers in all text fields
            Console.WriteLine("Entering addends");
            List<int> addends = new List<int>();
            Random randomNumberGenerator = new Random();

            var element = driver.FindElementByIosUIAutomation(".textFields()[\"TextField1\"];");
            int randomNumber = randomNumberGenerator.Next(0, 10);
            element.SendKeys(randomNumber.ToString());
            addends.Add(randomNumber);

            element = driver.FindElementByIosUIAutomation(".textFields()[\"TextField2\"];");
            randomNumber = randomNumberGenerator.Next(0, 10);
            element.SendKeys(randomNumber.ToString());
            addends.Add(randomNumber);

            // calculate the expected result
            int expectedResult = 0;
            foreach (int i in addends)
                expectedResult += i;

            Console.WriteLine("Submitting the form");
            // submit for computation
            var button = driver.FindElementByIosUIAutomation(".buttons()[\"ComputeSumButton\"]");
            button.Click();

            // TODO check the result
        }

        /// <summary>retrieves the path of the locally installed app</summary>
        /// <returns>the path to the Test App</returns>
        private static string _GetTestAppPath()
        {
            string appiumDir = Regex.Replace(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location, "/appium/.*$", "/appium");
            return appiumDir = "/Users/mac/Projects/InternationalMountains.app";
        }
    }
}

Yes, just point the AppiumDriver to the Mac computer on which Appium is running.

driver = new AppiumDriver(new Uri("http://192.168.1.28:5555/wd/hub"), capabilities);

Make sure the Uri (192.168.1.28) is the address of the Mac, and that Appium is running on the port listed (5555 here, though by default it is 4723.

It gives error to appiumDir = "/Users/mac/Projects/InternationalMountains.app";

You will need to specify the file as a uri (e.g., "file://...").

If you are still getting an error, can you give the whole error log?

Hi,

My c# code is on windows? It it problem as .app file is not for windows?

[Isaac Murchie]

The .app code is not going to run on Windows, so it is not a problem. The file is remote, existing on the Mac running Appium, and needs to be specified as so.
