WinAppDriver-Appium-CalculatorTest

This test demonstrates how to automate a Windows desktop application using Appium, WinAppDriver, XPath, and OpenCV template image matching (similar to Sikuli).

Examples show:

• how to use WinAppDriver locators
• how to use Appium image locators (findElementByImage).

To run demo:

1. start Appium Desktop
2. in Appium Desktop, start server
3. run AppiumCalculatorTest.java from your IDE (such as IntelliJ)

Setup:

1. install node.js and npm
2. install opencv4nodejs
   1. navigate to your local node_modules folder
      1. in git bash, run “which appium” to find out where it is (probably c:/Users/[your user]/AppData/Roaming/npm/npm_modules)
   2. in command prompt, run “npm install -g opencv4nodejs”
      1. if you encounter an error because the installer cannot run cmake, install cmake
      2. visit cmake.org/download/ and download the latest installer.
      3. close and reopen a command line window
      4. navigate again to node_modules folder and rerun command to install opencv4nodejs
   3. in command prompt, run “npm link opencv4nodejs”
3. add support for the latest version of appium-java-client
   1. navigate to github.com/appium/java-client
   2. add jitpack and java-client dependencies using Maven or Gradle (depending on your project)
   3. change the “version” number to the most recent release
4. run npm install -g appium-windows-driver
5. activate Developer Mode on Windows 10
   1. (Settings / Updates & Security / For Developers / Developer Mode)
6. download and install the most recent version of WinAppDriver
7. download and install Appium Desktop
