How to write test in approid appium?

Question

I need to record a test in android appium, and I have to play the recorded script. Is there any way to do this? I need to use it as a web selenium automation. can i use appium inspector to test android?

Answer 1

When you write a script with Appium, there is no “play” function. The inspector is used only for searching and recording interactions with application elements. Here's a link to android walkthrough: Android built-in automation

You need to select the language and export the file (see the lower part of the inspector during the recording mode). (Pic here)

You can run the saved file from the IDE or command line.
