Appium commands that are commonly used on Mac
In this example, we will use Appium Inspector to start a seesion on your emulator on Android Studio.
Start appium
First, start the connection with Appium by cmd appium --allow-cors. It also gives you the remote url and the automationName that can be used in the Appium Inspector
Start Session
- deviceName:
adb devices - platformName -
appium driver list - platformVersion -
adb shell getprop ro.build.version.release
Now you can start a session in your emulator, but it always begins from the home page. To directly start a session on certain App, you also need to provide the appPackage and the appActivity.
