Appium-Python-Client-Monkey 1.0.0

Hot Patch For Appium-Pyhton-Client

Appium Python Client Moneky

Hot Patch For Appium-Python-Client

An extension library for adding WebDriver Protocol and Appium commands to the Selenium Python language binding for use with the mobile testing framework Appium.

Notice

Since Appium_Python-Client v1.0.0, only Python 3.7+ is supported.

Since Appium_Python-Client v2.0.0, the base selenium client version is v4. The version only works in W3C WebDriver protocol format. If you would like to use the old protocol (MJSONWP), please use v1 Appium Python client. More Reference

Getting the Appium Python client Monkey

There are three ways to install and use the Appium Python client.

1. Install from PyPi, as 'Appium-Python-Client-Monkey'.

   pip install Appium-Python-Client-Monkey
   

   You can see the history from here

2. Install from source, via PyPi. From 'Appium-Python-Client', download and unarchive the source tarball (Appium-Python-Client-Monkey-X.X.tar.gz).

   tar -xvf  Appium-Python-Client-Monkey-X.X.tar.gz
   cd Appium-Python-Client-Monkey-X.X
   python setup.py install
   

3. Install from source via GitHub.

   git clone [e-mail]:CN-Robert-LIU/appium-python-client-monkey.git
   cd appium-python-client-monkey
   python setup.py install
   

Usage

The Appium Python Client is fully compliant with the WebDriver Protocol including several helpers to make mobile testing in Python easier.

To use the new functionality now, and to use the superset of functions, instead of including the Selenium webdriver module in your test code, use that from Appium instead.

from appium import webdriver

from appium_patch import monkey
webdriver.Remote = monkey.patch_all()

From there much of your test code will work with no change.

As a base for the following code examples, the following sets up the UnitTest environment:

# Android environment
import unittest
from appium import webdriver
from appium_patch import monkey
webdriver.Remote = monkey.patch_all()


desired_caps = dict(
    platformName='Android',
    platformVersion='10',
    automationName='uiautomator2',
    deviceName='Android Emulator',
    app=PATH('../../../apps/selendroid-test-app.apk')
)
self.driver = webdriver.Remote('http://localhost:4723/wd/hub', desired_caps)
el = self.driver.find_element_by_accessibility_id('item')
el.click()

# iOS environment
import unittest
from appium import webdriver
from appium_patch import monkey
webdriver.Remote = monkey.patch_all()


desired_caps = dict(
    platformName='iOS',
    platformVersion='13.4',
    automationName='xcuitest',
    deviceName='iPhone Simulator',
    app=PATH('../../apps/UICatalog.app.zip')
)

self.driver = webdriver.Remote('http://localhost:4723/wd/hub', desired_caps)
el = self.driver.find_element_by_accessibility_id('item')
el.click()

Direct Connect URLs

If your Selenium/Appium server decorates the new session capabilities response with the following keys:

• directConnectProtocol
• directConnectHost
• directConnectPort
• directConnectPath

Then python client will switch its endpoint to the one specified by the values of those keys.

import unittest
from appium import webdriver
from appium_patch import monkey
webdriver.Remote = monkey.patch_all()


desired_caps = dict(
    platformName='iOS',
    platformVersion='13.4',
    automationName='xcuitest',
    deviceName='iPhone Simulator',
    app=PATH('../../apps/UICatalog.app.zip')
)

self.driver = webdriver.Remote('http://localhost:4723/wd/hub', desired_caps, direct_connection=True)

Relax SSL validation

strict_ssl option allows you to send commands to an invalid certificate host like a self-signed one.

import unittest
from appium import webdriver
from appium_patch import monkey
webdriver.Remote = monkey.patch_all()


desired_caps = dict(
    platformName='iOS',
    platformVersion='13.4',
    automationName='xcuitest',
    deviceName='iPhone Simulator',
    app=PATH('../../apps/UICatalog.app.zip')
)

self.driver = webdriver.Remote('http://localhost:4723/wd/hub', desired_caps, strict_ssl=False)
