Can you confirm if "Is Element Exists" is working as intended? I used multiple different xpaths for different elements and they all return as false even though they are present on the screen.

I follow all the steps but I got this issue when I try to connect to the simulator when using your example file:
[402248657] [23:39:04] Thread #1 : Error: Failed to create session. An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command. Original error: Error executing adbExec.

Could you help me with this?

@thepappo hey man! You did a great job with this module everything working ok. I have 5 physical mobiles connected on USB on my PC. Should I use same appium server for all these 5 devices or should I do a different appium server on each device.

Thank you for your work in this plugin. I ll try to donate also

[thepappo]

@andreiem you should use only one appium server for all devices. As for real phones, I guess it won't work with appium.

[andreiem]

@thepappo why do you think real phones won't work with appium? what do you mean. I tested it and it can control my phones

Great. It's just that usually appium works fine with Memu only.

[andreiem]

@poison008 use in cmd: taskkill /F /IM node.exe and then start appium server again: appium -a 127.0.0.1 -p 4723. After thaat no need to restart BAS just use the start server and connnect to device comands in BAS again

[andreiem]

@thepappo is there another way to click except click by coordinates and click by xpath? Xpath is slow sometimes and I read some appium threads on google, some people say is normal for xpath to be slow on appium.

Probably they were talking about the first appium version. The current one is rather faster. You can check a duration by doing "Get XML Dump" action. It runs without DOM parsing.

If you enable "Wait for the element to appear" checkbox, you can also try to change a "delay" option. It is responsible for the pause between searches for an element.

No way as I know.

Why I get this error? "ReferenceError: AMConfig is not defined"
Thanks for the help!

[thepappo]

@apadfaxa AMConfig is the variable that is set at "Start server" action. So you have to make sure that this action has been started.

Please tell me, can this module wipe the device's data?, just like bringing it back when it was purchased.

[andreiem]

do i still need to run "Start Server" command from your module if I run appium -a 127.0.0.1 -p 4723 with cmd?

[Code Zeus]

Hello, does anyone know what could be the problem? It will be both when the server is running through the console and without.

Yes, you need to run a server always.

Make sure that the port "4723" is not busy by another process. Perhaps, you already started the appium on the same port.
