Appium StartActivity() Function

I am new to Appium, In my code I have given required desired capabilities and wrote one test case that is working fine. Now I want to launch another App for second test in same cod

Solution 1:

Seems like you are trying to use the method with a WebDriver instance.

The startActivity method is provided by an interface StartsActivity implemented by AndroidDriver only. So ideally this shall work :

((AndroidDriver) driver).startActivity(<appPackage>, <appActivity>);

Solution 2:

public static void start() {
        try {
            ((AndroidDriver) driver).startActivity("com.example.test", "com.example.LaunchApp");
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

You have to enter your app package name and activity name to maximize the app.
