Unable to use PrebuiltWDA
grishukov opened this issue · 5 comments
I tried using a pre-built WDA to reduce the session startup time and it works not as I expect.
On m1 mac I build wda.app (5.6) from source for simulator.
xcodebuild -scheme 'WebDriverAgentRunner' -sdk iphonesimulator -configuration Debug build BUILD_DIR=/path/to/
Then I provide it to "options" like this for test on sim
capabilities.AddAdditionalAppiumOption("appium:useNewWDA", "true");
capabilities.AddAdditionalAppiumOption("appium:usePrebuiltWDA", "true");
capabilities.AddAdditionalAppiumOption("appium:prebuiltWDAPath", "/Users/timur/Source/wda/builds/Debug-iphonesimulator/WebDriverAgentRunner-Runner.app");
appium server 2.0.1. \ client .net 5.0.0. beta4
When test runs without this options WDA builds ok.
with prebuild wda
appium logs have this

I assume you may want to try out https://appium.github.io/appium-xcuitest-driver/4.32/run-prebuilt-wda/#how-to-use-appiumusexctestrunfile-and-appiumbootstrappath-capabilities
As https://appium.github.io/appium-xcuitest-driver/4.32/capabilities/ 's description for prebuiltWDAPath, it is for real devices only.
The path to a WebDriverAgentRunner application package to be installed with appium:usePreinstalledWDA capability for real devices. The package's bundle id will be used over appium:updatedWDABundleId.
@KazuCocoa Thank you for quick response.
I checked this info and yes it can be work around for me, it feels not handy but ok.
I faced with another one problem.
After creating wda and xcui test file appium cannot recognize the test file and gives the following log
[debug] [XCUITestDriver@eea1 (8d92d744)] Unable to launch WebDriverAgent because of xcodebuild failure: If you are using 'useXctestrunFile' capability then you need to have a xctestrun file (expected: '/Users/timur/.appium/node_modules/appium-xcuitest-driver/node_modules/appium-webdriveragent/wda_build/Build/Products/WebDriverAgentRunner_iphonesimulator16.4-x86_64.xctestrun
actually wda_build/Build/Products dir contain WebDriverAgentRunner_iphonesimulator16.4-arm64.xctestrun
However after renaming
mv WebDriverAgentRunner_iphonesimulator16.4-arm64.xctestrun WebDriverAgentRunner_iphonesimulator16.4-x86_64.xctestrun
WDA was correctly installed and after that near was created new file with such name FF88F575-44E1-4929-A714-367DA115B062_16.4.xctestrun
They depend on xcodebuild. Usually x86_64/arm64 depends on arch argument for xcodebuild or running environment. The generated file is used by xcodebuild to manage the app. Appium simply provide possible arguments to the xcodebuild. (You can see more details about the xcodebuild with man command)
@KazuCocoa It works, but not reduce session startup time dramatically. I tried parallel testing for 3 sim on one mac, and WDA for each was installed after...: WebDriverAgent successfully started after 82502ms. It is strange because "undertest.app" install took a couple seconds.
Anyway thank you for your time
yea, xcodebuild does something, so to make optimize the time further, perhaps we could do something like real devices
https://appium.github.io/appium-xcuitest-driver/4.32/run-preinstalled-wda/
But I don't know much about it for simulators right now
