Overview

When tried to run Appium actions got the following errors,

Error 1

WebDriver.__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument ‘desired_capabilities’

From Selenium version 4.10.0 and python-appium-client 3.10 desired_capabilites option has been deprecated. So we cannot provide a dictionary with all the desired capabilities like before. Instead, we have to provide a UiAutomator2Options option object that is created from the desired capabilities dictionary.

Previous
appium_driver = webdriver.Remote("http://localhost:%d" % appium_port, desired_caps)

Current
capabilities_options = UiAutomator2Options().load_capabilities(desired_caps)
appium_driver = webdriver.Remote("http://localhost:%d" % appium_port, capabilities_options)

Error 2

AttributeError: 'WebDriver' object has no attribute 'launch_app'

Currently, appium remote driver does not have any 'launch_app' attribute. So had to replace 'launch_app' with 'activate_app'.

Previous
appium_driver.launch_app()

Current
appium_driver.activate_app(package_name)
