Not able to Tap or SendKeys on Appium Inspector to Mobile Web

[Grace Zhou]

Hi, 

I am using Appium to test Safari on iPad simulator.  Here are my steps:

1. Start Appium.app

2. Check on "Use Mobile Safari"

3. Launch

4. I enter "www.apple.com" on simulator

5. Start Appium Inspector

It finds elements on the web page. I select one button and use Touch - Tap. It should click on the button on simulator, but not.  

I copied the recorded code and ran from Terminal. It always failed too.

Here are logs:

I find my request received with params {} .  I am wondering if appium has connected to safari web successfully. Can anyone help me please?

Thanks!

The inspector isn't really made for safari. If you want to inspect a website in iOS, just use Desktop Safari's remote debugging, it'll be a lot more straightforward.

It works! I enabled Web Inspect and found element by name.  

Much appreciated for quick response! :-)
