Description
Platform: Nativescript Angular
After the setup and initial test code generated, and editing the appium.capabilities.json to add my emulator properly, I was able to succesfully run my tests to the emulator.
However, I need to be able to run the tests to a real device connected via USB (Android).
- Debugging is on
I added my test device details on the capabilities json as well, so the appium.capabilities.json looks like this now:
{
"realme": {
"platformName": "Android",
"deviceName": "RMX1851",
"udid": "a53b7a83",
"noReset": false,
"fullReset": false,
"app": ""
},
"pixel": {
"platformName": "Android",
"platformVersion": "29",
"deviceName": "Pixel_3a_API_29",
"avd": "emulator-5554",
"lt": 60000,
"newCommandTimeout": 720,
"noReset": false,
"fullReset": false,
"app": ""
}
One for emulator and one for actual device. The emulator works just fine when running:
npm run e2e android
However, when I connect my actual device and run the same command. It will not be shown in the list of devices and the command defaults to the emulator as a fallback.
I managed to get it to try to run to my actual device by using this command instead:
npm run e2e -- --runType=realme --ignoreDeviceController --relaxedSecurity
I can confirm that it has now successfully installed the appium service on my device, but cannot move past running my app for testing. With these errors outputted:
Capabilities found at: ********
Automation name set to: UIAutomator1
To change automation name, you need to set it in appium capabilities!
Available applications: ["platforms/android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk"]
Pick first application: "platforms/android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk"
Application full path: ****\platforms\android\app\build\outputs\apk\debug\app-debug.apk
Platform version is missing! It would be better to set it in order to use the correct device!
Default device: { name: 'RMX1851',
platform: 'android',

Anyone has an idea how to run the tests properly on real devices? (Android / IOS).
