UI Tests Xamarin app : System.Exception : Java Development Kit (JDK) not found

Question

I set my path to my JDK. enter image description here

enter image description here

But i have this message :
Message: System.Exception : Java Development Kit (JDK) not found. Please make sure that it is installed and if it's still not located, please set the JAVA_HOME environment variable to point to the directory.

Searched locations:Windows Registry
 [ Source: JAVA_HOME ]

When i try to use this :

public static IApp StartApp(Platform platform)
{
    if (platform == Platform.Android)
    {
        return ConfigureApp.Android
                .ApkFile("../JhipsterXamarin/JhipsterXamarin.Android/bin/Debug/com.companyname.jhipsterxamarin.apk")
                .StartApp();
    }
}

From the shared screenshot, you are using the custom downloaded JDK , not the downloaded JDK from Visual Studio.

Maybe the C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.8.0_271 can work when Visual Studio debug the project, however not works for UItest.

Therefore, you could have a try with the generated path from Visual Studio:

C:\\Program Files\\Android\\jdk\\microsoft_dist_openjdk_1.8.0.25
