deviceName Name of emulator to use for running test. Note that this capability is not required, if no device name is specified, then a default emulator is used.You can specify only partial name, first emulator that starts with specified deviceName will be selected. e.g., Emulator 8.1 WVGA 4 inch 512MB
innerPort Inner driver port used to communicate between OuterDriver and InnerDrive (injected into Windows Phone app). Note: Required only if non-default port was specified in tested app in AutomationServer.Instance.InitializeAndStart call. e.g., 9998 (default)
launchTimeout Maximum timeout in milliseconds, to be waited for application to launch (application is pinged every 0.5 sec). e.g. 10000 (default)
launchDelay Launch delay in milliseconds, to be waited to let visuals to initialize after application launched (after successful ping or timeout). Note: use it if the system running emulator is slow. e.g. 0 (default)
platformName Ignored in desired capabilities. Set to WindowsPhone in actual capabilities. WindowsPhone
debugConnectToRunningApp If true, then application deployment and launching steps are skipped. Driver assumes that emulator (specified by deviceName) is already running and application is launched. true or false
