How to setup Appium for mobile automation

GitHub is a code hosting platform for version control and collaboration. When a project is to be created, constant changes are made to the code. Version control systems keep these revisions straight, and store the modifications in a central repository. A repository is a location where all the files for a particular project are stored. Each project will have its own repository, and can be accessed by a unique URL.

We have done above setup and activity and launch the application using following program.

Note: we have tried following ways but not get any outcome.

1.       Using Sikuli we have tried to perform click actions using image recognition concept. Integrate Sikuli with Appium download following jar files:

1.       Sikuli-core-1.1.2

2.       Sikuli-script

3.       Sikuli-webdriver-1.0.1

2.       Using following code to perform action using sikuli:

Pattern image = new Pattern("C:/Users/gurneet.a.singh/workspace/AppiumDemo/Apps/SocialOcean/LoadMainScene.png");

Screen s = new Screen();

s.wait(image, 2000);

s.find(image);

s.click();

3.       Tried with touch action to perform action but didn’t get any outcome.

 TouchAction tapAction = new TouchAction(driver);

tapAction.tap(270, 1115).perform();

4.       Perform action using Appium

driver.findElement(MobileBy.className("android.view.View")).click();

Note: using above code we are perform click action on dropdown.

5.       Tried with tap action but not get any outcome.
