Class AndroidDriver (implements AppiumDriver interface) has method pressKeyCode(int key) for your handset / emulator to navigate to Home screen or navigating back.
the argument key can be any one of the option from below link
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/KeyEvent.html
To navigate to home screen:
driver.pressKeyCode(AndroidKeyCode.HOME);Navigate to back screen:
driver.pressKeyCode(AndroidKeyCode.BACK);
Let's see how we can implement in code those above 2 statements
public class NavigateScreens{
static DesiredCapabilities cap;
static AndroidDriver driver;
@BeforeTest
static void setup() throws MalformedURLException{
cap = new DesiredCapabilities();
cap.setCapability(CapabilityType.PLATFORM, "Android");
cap.setCapability(CapabilityType.VERSION, "5.1.0");
cap.setCapability("deviceName", "mygeny510");
cap.setCapability("appPackage", "io.selendroid.testapp");
cap.setCapability("appActivity", ".HomeScreenActivity");
driver = new AndroidDriver(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"), cap);
}
@Test
static void HomeBack(){
driver.findElementByName("Touch Actions").click();
driver.findElementByName("Canvas").click();
driver.pressKeyCode(AndroidKeyCode.BACK);
driver.pressKeyCode(AndroidKeyCode.HOME);
}
}
hi i’m using driver.pressKeyCode(AndroidKeyCode.KEYCODE_CAMERA); to click picture in camera but it’s not working
can you try this one –
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(“cmd /C adb shell input keyevent ” + 27);
