For example, -chromedriver-executable becomes -driver-uiautomator2-chromedriver-executable. To access them, you'll now need to prepend the argument with the extension type (either driver or plugin) and the name of the extension. With Appium 2.x, all driver- and platform-specific CLI params have been moved to the drivers themselves. So, for example, -chromedriver-executable was a CLI parameter you could use with Appium to set the location of a specific Chromedriver version for use with, say, the UiAutomator2 driver. With Appium 1.x, command-line options specific to particular drivers were all hosted on the main Appium server. Instead, use the following environment variables during driver installation:ĪPPIUM_SKIP_CHROMEDRIVER_INSTALL = 1 appium driver install uiautomator2 In Appium 1.x it was possible to customize the way Chromedriver was installed (as part of the UiAutomator2 driver for example), using the following command line flags:īecause Appium 2.0 now installs drivers for you, and because these flags were implemented as NPM config flags, they will no longer work. So, the path to appium-webdriveragent could be $APPIUM_HOME/node_modules/appium-xcuitest-driver/node_modules/appium-webdriveragent after installing the XCUITest driver package. The path was /path/to/appium/node_modules.įor example, appium-webdriveragent to build WebDriverAgent manually was /path/to/appium/node_modules/appium-xcuitest-driver/node_modules/appium-webdriveragent.Īppium 2.0 installs such dependencies in APPIUM_HOME environment variable. When you installed Appium 1.x, all available drivers would be installed at the same time as the main Appium server. Please uninstall any existing Appium 1.x npm packages (with npm uninstall -g appium) if you get an installation or startup error. This will install Appium and the two drivers for you in one go. ![]() Npm install -global appium -drivers =xcuitest,uiautomator2 To retain the old behaviour, you can set the base path via a command line argument as follows: As such the default base path for the server is now /. wd/hub base path was a legacy convention from the days of migrating from Selenium 1 to SeleniumĢ, and is no longer relevant. With Appium 1.x, the server would accept commands by default on The Here we call out the breaking changes and what you need to do to account for them. Together these do introduce a few breaking changes to how Appium is installed, how drivers and various features are managed, and protocol support. Instead, Appium 2.0 reenvisions Appium as a platform where "drivers" (code projects that introduce support for automation of a given platform) and "plugins" (code projects that allow for overriding, altering, extending, or adding behaviors to Appium) can be easily created and shared.Īt the same time, the Appium project is taking the opportunity to remove many old and deprecated bits of functionality. The changes in Appium 2.0 are not primarily related to changes in automation behaviors for specific platforms. Overview of Appium 2.0Īppium 2.0 is the most major new release of Appium in over 5 years. It contains a list of breaking changes and how to migrate your environments or test suites to ensure compatibility with Appium 2.0. This document is a guide for those who are using Appium 1.x and wish to migrate to Appium 2.x.
