An in-range update of appium is breaking the build 🚨

[greenkeeper]

Version 1.6.5 of appium just got published.

Branch	Build failing 🚨
Dependency	appium
Current Version	1.6.4
Type	devDependency

This version is covered by your current version range and after updating it in your project the build failed.

As appium is “only” a devDependency of this project it might not break production or downstream projects, but “only” your build or test tools – preventing new deploys or publishes.

I recommend you give this issue a high priority. I’m sure you can resolve this 💪

Status Details

• ❌ continuous-integration/travis-ci/push The Travis CI build could not complete due to an error Details

Version 1.7.0 just got published.

Your tests are still failing with this version. Compare the changes 🚨

Release Notes

1.7.0

Note: This is a feature release, marking two major changes:

• Support iOS 11 through Xcode 9 beta 6
• Support multiple simultaneous sessions in Android and iOS (9+)

Known Issues:

• Android
  • Webviews on Android O do not work because of a bug in Chromedriver. We
    are working on a workaround. Chrome sessions still work
• iOS
  • Touch ID enrollment on simulators in Xcode 9 does not work because of an
    issue with AppleScript
  • Scaling simulators with Xcode 9 does not work
  • Simulators in Xcode 9 produce no meaningful device logs
  • Parallel Safari/Webview sessions are not working due to an Apple bug

General

• Fix handling of sending keys to elements in recent versions of Selenium
• Allow app capability that is a url to have query parameters
• Begin to allow multiple device support in situations where it is possible
  (e.g., iOS under Xcode 9)
• Add isHeadless capability to allow running simulator/emulator with no UI

iOS

• Add command to upload media to simulator
• Fix reliability of touch ID functionality
• Fix detection of system apps
• Update atoms used for MobileSafari automation to those of Selenium 3.5.3
• Add realDeviceLogger capability to allow specification of what program to
  use to capture logs on real device
• Fix handling of enablePerformanceLogging capability in Safari tests
• Fix offset when Safari on an iPad has multiple tabs

iOS - XCUITest

• Support for latest Beta of iOS 11 (Xcode 9 beta 6)
• Multiple device support
• Fix handling of bundle id on simulators
• Make nativeWebTap a setting as well as a desired capability
• Allow nativeWebTap to work on real devices
• Do not try to uninstall app before installing on real device, which was causing
  many issues
• Fix clearing of text fields
• Change behavior of useNewWDA: if true, forces uninstall of any existing
  WebDriverAgent app on device. Set it to true if you want to apply different
  startup options for WebDriverAgent for each session. Real devices require
  WebDriverAgent client to run for as long as possible without reinstall/restart
  to avoid issues. The false value will try to detect currently running WDA
  listener executed by previous testing session(s) and reuse it if possible,
  which is highly recommended for real device testing and to speed up suites of
  multiple tests in general. A new WDA session will be triggered at the default
  URL (http://localhost:8100) if WDA is not listening and webDriverAgentUrl
  capability is not set.
• Allow setting url in native context
• Fix screenshot functionality

Android

• Add remoteAdbHost capability to specify the host on which adb is running, if
  it is not localhost
• Add methods to start and stop recording the screen
• Fix screenshot commands
• Skip setting of mock location for emulators
• Add methods for emulator phone capacity: sendSMS, gsmCall, gsmSignal,
  gsmVoice, powerAC, powerCapacity, and networkSpeed
• Fix cleanup of adb port forwarding during Chrome sessions
• Fix error where package name would be appended to fully qualified activity
  name and package finding would then fail
• Properly handle bootstrap failure on launch
• Make sure correct logger is used for bootstrap

Android - UIAutomator 2

• Fix handling of adbPort capability
• Fix coverage handling
• Handle pressing and long pressing key codes
• Enable nativeWebScreenshot capability
• Fix restoring of IME when unicodeKeyboard/resetKeyboard capabilities are
  used
• Add disableWindowAnimation capability to launch instrumentation with no
  animation
• Correctly start ChromeDriver session for Chrome session
• Allow getting password attribute from elements
