Android emulator not started. always throwing error for browserName while not include in caps

I am trying to automate appium android but the desired capability always throw error for sauce labs like:

Unable to parse remote response: Cannot specify both browserName and app caps.

I haven't add browserName in cap still it is showing key in request JSON

I have also upload apk on server using curl command

Full error:

My code:

public static AndroidDriver<AndroidElement> capabilities() throws MalformedURLException 
{

DesiredCapabilities caps = DesiredCapabilities.android(); 
caps.setCapability("appiumVersion", "1.5.1"); 
caps.setCapability("deviceName","Android Emulator"); 
caps.setCapability("deviceType","phone"); 
caps.setCapability("deviceOrientation", "portrait"); 
caps.setCapability("platformVersion", "4.4"); 
caps.setCapability("platformName","Android"); 
caps.setCapability("app","sauce-storage:HelloGappium-android.zip");

driver = new AndroidDriver<>(new URL(URL), caps); 

return driver; 
}

Please let me know if I am missing anything as I am new to sauce labs

Please share your working caps for sauce labs specific to android

Solution

  • Here you can find the platform configurator. Sauce Labs supply it to help with getting the right caps which is what you need. Based on your configuration, the correct caps will look like this for web testing:

    DesiredCapabilities caps = DesiredCapabilities.android();
caps.setCapability("appiumVersion", "1.6.4");
caps.setCapability("deviceName","Android Emulator");
caps.setCapability("deviceOrientation", "portrait");
caps.setCapability("browserName", "Browser");
caps.setCapability("platformVersion", "4.4");
caps.setCapability("platformName","Android");

    for Hybrid or App testing, the browserName will be set as:

    caps.setCapability("browserName", "");
