parallel test with appium & selenium grid

Question

I\'m trying to run parallel test on 2 devices using appium & selenium grid but for some reason it runs only on the first node server (and first device) but nothing happen on

Answer 1

i also faced the same issue but got resolved by

Step1: add the appium (.. \Appium\node_modules.bin) in you environment variable Step2: make the differen json for the each node.

for node 1

 {   "capabilities":
    [
      {
        "version":"6.0",
        "maxInstances": 1,
        "platform":"ANDROID",
        "newCommandTimeout":"30",
        "deviceReadyTimeout":5
      }
    ],   "configuration":   {
    "cleanUpCycle":2000,
    "timeout":10800,
    "url":"http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub",
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": 4723,
    "proxy": "org.openqa.grid.selenium.proxy.DefaultRemoteProxy",
    "maxSession": 1,
    "register": true,
    "registerCycle": 5000,
    "hubPort": 4444,
    "hubHost": "127.0.0.1"   } }

for node 2

 {
  "capabilities":
    [
      {
        "version":"5.0.2",
        "maxInstances": 1,
        "platform":"ANDROID",
        "newCommandTimeout":"30",
        "deviceReadyTimeout":5
      }
    ],
  "configuration":
  {
    "cleanUpCycle":2000,
    "timeout":10800,
    "url":"http://127.0.0.1:4733/wd/hub",
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": 4733,
    "proxy": "org.openqa.grid.selenium.proxy.DefaultRemoteProxy",
    "maxSession": 1,
    "register": true,
    "registerCycle": 5000,
    "hubPort": 4444,
    "hubHost": "127.0.0.1"
  }
}

now for to run the hub i have made that in a batch file

java -jar %cd%\selenium-server-standalone-2.52.0.jar -role hub http://127.0.0.1:4444/grid/console

and

for node1

appium -a 127.0.0.1 -p 4723 --no-reset --bootstrap-port 4728 -U 192.168.56.101:5555 --nodeconfig %cd%\5555appium1.json

and node 2

appium -a 127.0.0.1 -p 4733 --no-reset --bootstrap-port 4738 -U 4d00af03525c80a1 --nodeconfig %cd%\4d00appium2.json

and in you code add the deviceName:'your device name which comes on adb devices in cmd'

This really worked for me.
