I am trying to write a script without having source code. now i want to change twhe network status like wifi on\off or mobile network on\off before running my TC

I am adding below permission in Test project, but my apk dont have these permission. the AUT have only View wifi state and internet permission

 <uses-permission android:name= "android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name = "android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE"/>
    <uses-permission android:name = "android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name = "android.permission.CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name = "android.permission.INTERNET"/>

now my tc throws
java.lang.SecurityException: WifiService: Neither user <APP ID> nor current process has android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE.

You might be able to hack something. Not sure. The permission tags need to be in the app under test.
