Does appium-for-mac supports entire desktop session #69

Does appium-for-mac supports entire desktop session, something similar to what 'root' session does in appium? This will be required for scenarios when we want to locate pop-up from the application

I had the same question.

QITIE commented 5 years ago

Is there a way that we can switch driver session to the pop-up window which ask userName and password?

/AXApplication/ should locate the default front app, but seems it doesn't work for 'SecurityAgent' (UserName & Password prompt)

I am also curious because it seems that Windows has this functionality to launch the "root" application which then allows you to interact with things in their tray app. But I haven't been able to figure out how to interact with say the menubar on Mac.

I can interact with the tray menu on macOS 10.15 by setting the following capabilities:

'platformName', 'Mac'
"deviceName", "Mac"

Note that the app capability is not set
