Issue on getting initialize notapad.exe using WinAppDriver

[Mohamed Rafeek M]

Team,

I'm trying to automate windows application like notepad, calculator using WinAppDriver in QAF and java bdd approach. My property file contains below properties.

remote.server=127.0.0.1

remote.port=4723

driver.name=appiumDriver

appium.additional.capabilities={'platformName':'Windows','deviceName':'WindowsPC','automationName':'Appium','app':'C:\Windows\System32\notepad.exe','driverClass':'io.appium.java_client.windows.WindowsDriver'}

Issue: Notepad is not getting initialized by default. if I run below approach then its working as expected.

DesiredCapabilities capabilities1 = new DesiredCapabilities();

capabilities1.setCapability("app", "C:\\Windows\\System32\\notepad.exe");  

NotepadSession = new WindowsDriver(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723"), capabilities1);

NotepadSession.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(2, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

Assert.assertEquals("Untitled - Notepad", NotepadSession.getTitle());        

NotepadSession.findElementByClassName("Edit").sendKeys("Some text");

Query:

I tried notepad.exe path with double quotes, double slash forward and backward etc nothing has worked.

Kindly refer attached both success and failure log in WinAppDriver log 

getting 404 not found. Kindly provide your support on this.

Regards,

Rafeek

It worked for me without any issue. See attached file.

I used following properties for setting capabilities

remote.port=4723
driver.name= appiumDriver
appium.capabilities.driverClass=io.appium.java_client.windows.WindowsDriver
appium.capabilities.app=C:\\Windows\\System32\\notepad.exe

It worked well as normal web driver test without issue:

@Test
    public void testCanEditInNotpad(){
        getDriver().verifyTitle(exact("Untitled - Notepad"));
        //getDriver().findElementByClassName("Edit").sendKeys("it worked!...")
        $("className=Edit").sendKeys("it worked!...");
    }

Hi Jaiswal,

Thank you for your response. Already, I've verified the same approach and again tried your suggestion with new project and end up with error.

Error: 

Unable to create driver instance in 1st attempt with retry timeout of 0 seconds. You can check/set value of 'driver.init.retry.timeout' appropriately to set retry timeout on driver initialization failure. Unable to Create Driver Instance for appium: org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: Unable to create a new remote session. Please check the server log for more details. Original error: Unable to parse remote response: 

Steps Followed:
- I just download QAF Maven blank project

- Added application.Properties as you mentioned above.

- Added notepad win app steps
    @Test

    public void testCanEditInNotpad(){ }

Note: Kindly refer attached complete blank project file. Kindly verify and let me share you thoughts on this solution.

Was appium running and did you provided correct ip and port in properties file? Make sure you have correct value for remote.server and remote.port.

 If yes Can you share detailed log from execution console as well as from appium.
