Class AndroidDriver (implements AppiumDriver interface) has certain methods for locking and unlocking an android device / emulator at run time. (should upgrade java-client.jar to version 4)
Methods:
- isLocked() – Check if device is locked
Returns true, if device is locked, else returns false
- Unlock a device
- Lock a device
NOTE: these methods doesn’t hold good if you have set pass code / pin code or patterns to unlock.
Open emulator or connect android mobile to computer, start Appium and run below code
public class Dialer {
static DesiredCapabilities cap;
static AppiumDriver 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 Selendroid(){
if (((AndroidDriver) driver).isLocked())
((AndroidDriver) driver).unlockDevice();
else
((AndroidDriver) driver).lockDevice();
}
}
