ios driver with ruby

[Dan Franko]

Anyone know what the syntax should be to start a native app with ruby or watir-webdriver is?  I've got no problems starting safari in a simulator, but I want to run a native app in either the simulator or a real device.

Here's the instructions for java. Is it only supported with java now/

Thanks!

First off, François' repository should be considered dead, please look at the 'official' git repo for ios-driver:
http://ios-driver.github.io/ios-driver/native.html

As for using Ruby bindings to connect to a native app on device or simulator, take a look at the desired capabilities you should pass:
https://github.com/lukeis/seconf/blob/master/src/main/java/me/lukeis/example/drivers/iOSDriver.java#L11

Ruby can do equivalent to this example java code (in fewer lines...) :)

Great!  Thanks!  I think I just didn't realize I was on the dead one since they look so similar :).

Hi All,

I tried to test with ios-driver . I'm getting the following error.

/Users/X/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/InternationalMountains-grnxatbfagbvuwadvmtrfnvxultb/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/InternationalMountains.app' but no main parameter was defined

                at org.uiautomation.ios.server.IOSServer.main(IOSServer.java:65) 

Was able to build the app successfully and even it opens up the iPhone Simulator.

Appreciate your help on this.

Thanks,

Jeevan

Hi Luke,

How can I open any site on simulator through ruby code.
I have started ios-driver server.
Trying to run :-

require 'selenium-webdriver'

driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :remote, :url => "http://localhost:5555/wd/hub", :desired_capabilities => :iphone

gives me an error:-

NoMethodError: undefined method `downcase' for nil:NilClass

[Dan Franko]

What's your selenium-webdriver version?

I'm also trying to start a page in iphone/ipad simulator, which caps should be passed, using ruby bindings? Thanks a lot!
