XCUITest not part of Appium

Christian_Dolan 2017-05-04 22:41:53 UTC #1

Trying to do a simple test where I start appium and navigate to a page. This is on iOS 10. I keep getting this error while trying to run my script through java. This is the error code I'm getting.. I'm a bit lost so any help would be greatly appreciated. ( I did do npm install -g appium-xcuitest-driver. )

You should not need to install the xcuitest-driver directly. You should install appium, and that will pull in the rest that it needs...

npm install -g appium

Hi! I've done that. I've even tried to do npm uninstall -g appium && npm install -g appium@beta and I still get the same result.

The issue is
[debug] [MJSONWP] Bad parameters: BadParametersError: Parameters were incorrect.

Probably you are passing the wrong bundleId name...
You should pass
cap.setCapability("bundleId", BUNDLEID);
cap.setCapability("udid", UDID);
cap.setCapability("automationName", "XCUITest");
cap.setCapability("platformName", "ios");

What version of Appium is showing in your Appium logs? The first line should state the version...

2017-05-04 20:46:12:232 - [Appium] Welcome to Appium v1.6.4

Christian_Dolan 2017-05-05 15:23:49 UTC #8

You are right brain_watson. I was on version 1.5.3. Solved this particular issue.
