Using "switchDriver" to switch between Web and Mobile. When I switch Driver between web to web (Eg: Chrome to Firefox or Vice Versa) the driver instance is holding parallelly, but when I switch Driver between Web and Mobile or Vice Versa it is not holding the driver instance parallelly.
Note: I'm using two different service providers. Web (Browserstack) and Mobile (ExperiTest).
@QAFTestStep(description = "I switch driver {drivername}")
public static void iSwitchDriver(String drivername) {
if (drivername.equals("appiumDriver")) {
getBundle().setProperty("remote.server","https://experitest/xxxx");
} else { // chromeRemoteDriver/firefoxRemoteDriver/edgeRemoteDriver
getBundle().setProperty("remote.server","https://browserstack/xxxx");
}
switchDriver(drivername);
}

I have already tried referring below links for solution: Switch back and forth between drivers in qmetry , How to configure one test in TestNG XML file to start two driver, like Chrome Driver and Android Driver when using QAF
By design qaf tear-downs driver instance when observe any driver specific property change. You can try by removing configuration listener(s).
ConfigurationManager.getBundle().clearConfigurationListeners();
It may impact on resource load behavior.
To overcome that you can utilize driver specific resources feature which allows you to create separate properties file/folder and set as driver resource. In that way when changing driver you don't need to write code for load resources. For example:
env.name=qa
env.resources=resources/common;resources/${env.name}
driver.name=androidRemoteDriver
android.resources=resources/android;resources/mobilecloude.properties
ios.resources=resources/ios;resources/mobilecloude.properties
chrome.resources=resources/web;resources/browsercloude.properties
firefox.resources=resources/web;resources/browsercloude.properties
edge.resources=resources/web;resources/browsercloude.properties
in above example,
resources/web, resources/android, resources/ios may contains locator repositories if locators are different for android/ios/desktop-web.resources/${env.name} may contain resources specific to environment. For example environment specific test data.
