Test hangs sporadically when set Value is called

[ptsiakos77]

Appium 1.6.4 beta version XCode 8.2 Run on real device iphone 6s

My test suite hangs sporadically when I type values usually in search fields.(Usually it manages to type a part of value in the field and then stucks). This is not happening consistently but when it happens the logs are as follows:

AND IT NEVER PROGRESSES FROM HERE...LIKE A DEADLOCK THAT NEVER EXITS This is kind of blocking because after that the suite is not finished and no results are taken

[ptsiakos77]

Guys do you need any additional info for that? It's kind of blocking for our test suites since it may be sporadic but when we run the whole suite at least one test will be blocked by this cause and will block the whole suite

is it possible to be an appium problem? From what we say in release notes of appium 1.6.4 beta this version: Speed up setting the value of text fields

We are really blocked from this issue

[VTINFOJames]

I just reported a similar setValue() issue with Appium 1.6.4-beta for testing our native iOS app: https://github.com/facebook/WebDriverAgent/issues/480 I am running iOS 10.3 and 1.6.4-beta is the only Appium which supports iOS 10.3.

Bug filed. ID : 31293498

[VenkateshPS]

Do we have a workaround for this yet?

I tried with Appium 1.6.5 Beta and OSCapabilities.setCapability("maxTypeFrequency",5); but issue is still reproducible.

[SatishKumarKV]

@VenkateshPS : Issue seems to be fixed with 1.6.4. Please use commandTimeouts capability. So far , i have not seen issue after adding this capability.

[VenkateshPS]

I was already using that

            iOSCapabilities.setCapability("deviceName","iPhone 6");
    iOSCapabilities.setCapability("platformVersion","10.2");
    iOSCapabilities.setCapability("bundleid", "com.vocera.vcs");
    iOSCapabilities.setCapability("app", getAppPath());
            iOSCapabilities.setCapability("udid", iOSDeviceId);
    iOSCapabilities.setCapability("automationName", "XCUITest");
    iOSCapabilities.setCapability("useNewWDA",true);
    iOSCapabilities.setCapability("newCommandTimeout",10000);
    iOSCapabilities.setCapability("maxTypeFrequency",30);

[marekcirkos]

@VenkateshPS Can you check if master works for you?

[VenkateshPS]

I tried running using master branch but it seems like missing dependency

[VenkateshPS]

I am unable to run using the default web driver Agent project which comes with Appium 1.6.5 beta was working fine till I made changes

I get the same error as, I already ran ./Scripts/bootstrap.sh why I update code,can‘t run in real devices #214

@diaojunxian please tell where did you added .framework

[VenkateshPS]

OK, I resolved the issue it was because of signing. @marekcirkos , I have given Automation run using Master branch...will update my findings.

[VenkateshPS]

@marekcirkos, Have not seen any hangs till now, keyboard issue coming though after upgrading to Xcode 8.3.2 and iOS 10.3.2 from Xcode 8.2.1 and iOS 10.2

[prmrathod]

Any updates on the issue? Can anyone suggest a temporary workaround, please?

OSCapabilities.setCapability("maxTypeFrequency",5) suggested above has been deprecated.

[marekcirkos]

@prmrathod Do you use latest WDA and Appium? Stuff seems to be working on our side.

[VenkateshPS]

I have seen this issue happening on latest Appium 1.7.0 with Xcode 9 and Xcode 8.

[prmrathod]

Yes @marekcirkos , I'm using the latest version. Appium 1.7.0, Xcode 9, MacOS Sierra 10.12.6, XCUITest Driver 2.49.0 (which came with Appium installation) and Real device iPhone 6/6plus.

Hi Issac, so how can I update my webdriveragent to get the above new fix ? Is issac-wda branch stable ?
