Java Client, Appium and Win 10 issue

[amitg25]

I am trying to run Calculator App (java version) with WinAppDriver 0.5, but I see following issues with Appium.

When I declare my variables as IOSDriver (As mentioned on the description)

private static IOSDriver CalculatorSession = null;
private static WebElement CalculatorResult = null;
with following capabilities

capabilities.setCapability("app", "Microsoft.WindowsCalculator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App");
capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "Windows");
capabilities.setCapability("deviceName", "WindowsPC");

I keep getting iOS driver and exception
org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: An unknown server-side error occurred while processing the command. Original error: Could not find path to Xcode by symlinks located in /var/db/xcode_select_link, or /usr/share/xcode-select/xcode_dir_link (WARNING: The server did not provide any stacktrace information)

Now if I change it to
private static RemoteWebDriver CalculatorSession = null;
private static RemoteWebElement CalculatorResult = null;

It starts working but now WinAppDriver fails to getText from screen. Following line fails
final String xPath = "//*[@AutomationId='CalculatorResults']";
String text = CalculatorSession.findElementByXPath(xPath).getText();

I tried changing xpath to different ways like
//windows[@name='Display is 7 '];
//*[@name='Display is 7 '];
but none worked.
however when I call CalculatorSession.findElementByName("Seven").click();, this run successfully.

Can someone suggest what's wrong in here? To me it looks like driver issue.

Env:
Windows 10 Laptop
Version 1511
OS Build: 10586.679
Appium Ver: 1.6.1
Win App Driver: 0.5

This can be reproduce with Calculator Java version of App from WindowsAppDriver Sample tests.

I received this response from Jlipps on Appium Server side.

I think declaring it as ios driver is causing the capabilities to be wrong somehow. At any rate this is not a server issue but a java-client issue, so if you think there's a bug, please report it at https://github.com/appium/java-client/issues.

[jlipps]

The problem is that you're trying to start a session twice, and the second time you're passing in a platformName of iOS (or the java client is doing that on its own somehow, maybe as part of a retry mechanism).

[amitg25]

Thanks Jlipps, i did confirm I am not setting platformName=iOS anywhere in the code infect it's few lines of code only in the existing CalculatorTest sample app. Second I am sure that findElementForXPath is not working for java client, even simple calls like //*[@name='Next'] is failing with exception. So seems like java client issue.

This is the log from appium console.

@jlipps @amitg25 We (I am and @SrinivasanTarget ) are working on enhancements:

• non abstract AppiumDriver
• adding the WindowsDriver.

I think declaring it as ios driver is causing the capabilities to be wrong somehow.

There is the string (there are similar strings)
https://github.com/appium/java-client/blob/master/src/main/java/io/appium/java_client/ios/IOSDriver.java#L76

It is not the bug. It had been normal until Windows and youiengine automations were added. So it is just the case that we are implementing.
