Getting Started:

Installing Appium on a local machine

There are several documents and instructions on the internet to install Appium on your local machine. This is just one of the many ;-)

To setup the local test environment the following needs to be installed:

appium with npm install appium@next -g
appium-doctor with npm install appium-doctor -g
appium-desktop This one needs to be downloaded from here and pick the latest stable releases

Setup Android SDK path environment variable

- ANDROID_HOME = <path to Sdk folder>
- %ANDROID_HOME%\tools [path variable]
- %ANDROID_HOME%\tools\bin  [path variable]
- %ANDROID_HOME%\platform-tools  [path variable]

Setup/Create virtual device on Android studio:

1] Open Android Studio
2] Click on More Actions 
   --> AVD Manager 
   --> Create Virtual Device 
   --> Select the device and OS version (from below device details) 
   --> Finish
3] Once Virtual device is created, click on Launch this AVD in the emulator.
4] Command to view the list of devices attached `adb devices`

Device 1: Pixel 3 - version 11
Device 2: Nexus 6 - version 10 [ if you want to run tests in parallel ]

Clone repository:

git clone https://github.com/sadabnepal/WebdriverIOAppiumMochaJS.git
Navigate to `WebdriverIOAppiumMochaJS`

Note: all npm command should be executed from root project folder.

Install dependencies:

npm install

Verify appium drivers:

appium driver list

Sample output log of driver
-----------------------------

- uiautomator2@1.75.0 [installed (NPM)]
- xcuitest [not installed]

If drivers are not installed then run below commnad as required:

appium driver install uiautomator2  [ android driver ]
appium driver install xcuitest      [ ios driver ]

Verify all pre-requisite for android:

appium-doctor is used to diagnose and fix common Node, iOS and Android configuration issues before starting Appium. You only run it once to check your local machine. See an example output below.
