Mobile website testing through appium fails
lennyg1 opened this issue · 1 comments
When testing a mobile website through appium, as soon as the browser opens, the test fails because it can not find elements. It seems I can not start any mobile website testing through Appium using hsac-fitnesse-appium.
Screenshot and page source are both empty. The browser does open on the device and working with Appium Inspector or directly via Java, I can run tests. It seems that somehow when the browser opens, the data Appium sends back to the hsac-fitnesse-appium fixture doesn't get interpreted anymore. Automating mobile apps does still work through fitnesse. It only seems to go wrong with mobile browsers.
You are right, at the moment there is no support to test mobile websites via appium. Only native apps.
Testing websites (possibly using mobile emulation) I have always done via hsac-fitnesse-fixtures' BrowserTest.
I'm afraid I'm not actively working with Appium. But PRs are always welcome of course.
