Appium Desktop (https://github.com/appium/appium-desktop) provides Appium Server and Inspector in Desktop GUIs for Mac, Windows, and Linux. The post below explains how to use Appium inspector together with the devices hosted by Mobile Center.
- Launch Appium Desktop app
- Open New Session from Appium menu
- Navigate to Custom Server tab
- Setup the needed parameters (see attachment)
- Mobile Center FQDN/IP and Port
- Remote path: /wd/hub
- Proxy (if used)
- Desired capabilities:
- Please be sure to add browserName capability as empty, otherwise Appium will add the default browser name.
- It is highly recommended to use OATH Client ID and Secret instead of username/password for the user
- If you set Anonymous Access option for Appium to NO, please provide userName and password capabilities as well. If it is set to YES - no needed, it will work anonymously.
- Done - Appium Inspector is launched with device hosted by Mobile Center.
