In this installment of the Appium with Java series, we’ll take a look at how to use Appium with Java to automate mobile web apps.
First, we’ll need to add the Selenium Java bindings to our project. We can do this by adding the following dependency to our pom.xml file:
We’ll also need to add the Appium Java bindings to our project. We can do this by adding the following dependency to our pom.xml file:
Now that we have the necessary dependencies in place, we can start writing our Java code. Let’s start by creating a class called MobileWebAppAutomation. This class will contain our code for automating mobile web apps.
The first thing we’ll need to do is create a new instance of the AppiumDriver class. We can do this by using the following code:
AppiumDriver driver = new AppiumDriver();
Next, we’ll need to create a new instance of the WebDriverWait class. We can do this by using the following code:
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
This code will create a new instance of the WebDriverWait class that will wait for 10 seconds before timing out.
Next, we’ll need to create a new instance of the WebElement class. We can do this by using the following code:
WebElement element = new WebElement(“input”);
This code will create a new instance of the WebElement class that will represent an input field.
Now that we have our basic infrastructure in place, we can start writing our code to automate the mobile web app. Let’s start by finding the input field on the page. We can do this by using the following code:
WebElement inputField = wait.until(new WebDriverWait(driver, 10).findElement(By.name(“input”))
