Android Driver Event Listener like WebDriverEventListener

Question

I'm working with Selenium Webdriver, Listener and MyEventListener who implements WebDriverEventListener . This MyEventListener is register on EventFiringWebDriver like this:

EventFiringWebDriver myTestDriver = new EventFiringWebDriver(
        web_driver);
myListener = new MyEventListener(this.getClass().getName());
myTestDriver.register(myListener);
driver = myTestDriver;

Now I must work with an AndroidDriver for mobile and I want the same structure. I have found the AppiumWebDriverEventListener . MyEventListener implements AppiumWebDriverEventListener , but now I can't make the same structure because the EventFiringWebDriver is not compatible with AndroidDriver . I try this:

myDriver = (AndroidDriver) new      BQAquarisDriver().returnDriver(driverPlace, new BQAquarisDriver());
EventFiringWebDriver myTestDriver = new
EventFiringWebDriver(myDriver);
myListener = new MyEventListener(this.getClass().getName());
myTestDriver.register(myListener);
myDriver = myTestDriver;

But does not work.

Answer 1

Appium has this interface " AppiumWebDriverEventListener " which is the same as " WebDriverEventListener ".

And you can find in this GitHub repository everything about Appium Listeners, what interfaces to implement and how to use.

Answer 2

We can implement using EventFiringWebDriverFactory : https://appiumlistener.blogspot.com/

AndroidDriver driver = new AndroidDriver<AndroidElement>(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"), cap);
driver = EventFiringWebDriverFactory.getEventFiringWebDriver(driver, new ActivityCapture());
