My environment:
1. Appium v.1.7.2
2. Android emulator Nexus_4_API_23
3. Emulator is detected from abd devices and udid is emulator-5554

Notes:
I try to run Appium from Eclipse-testNG, with the same emulator Appium able to run the test.

Could anyone please help me on this issue?

Thanks in advance,
Hadi

Hi Hadi,

Is this issue always happens for every emulators? Have you tried with other emulators such as BlueStacks?

Hi Vinh,

Thanks for responding my questions

I already tried 2 emu come from avd manager and 1 real device, all of them have the same issue. I’m not sure if the emu was the root of problems, since I’ve tried to run the test using the same emu with other test framework (eclipse/testNG) and there’s no issue.

But let me try to use emu provided by BlueStacks, I haven’t tried yet, thanks for the suggestions.

Thanks,
Hadi

Anyway still no luck to spy mobile application, I tried to change the apk and used wordpress, the result still fail.

Anyone could share with me the environment that working for katalon spy?

Test env, i.e. Operating System, Appium version, Katalon Version, Emulator/real device detail (API …), and other things related to the test environment.

Thanks in advance,

Hadi
