## Getting Started

## Pre-requisites

Before you can start performing App automation testing with Appium, you would need to follow these steps:

- Make sure you have Appium’s [Java client library](https://github.com/appium/java-client) installed.

### Clone The Sample Project

Clone the LambdaTest’s :link: [LT-appium-java-junit](https://github.com/LambdaTest/LT-appium-java-junit) repository and navigate to the code directory as shown below:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/LambdaTest/LT-appium-java-junit
cd LT-appium-java-junit
```
[TestMu AI](https://www.testmuai.com/) (Formerly LambdaTest) is the world's first full-stack AI Agentic Quality Engineering platform that empowers teams to test intelligently, smarter, and ship faster. Built for scale, it offers a full-stack testing cloud with 10K+ real devices and 3,000+ browsers. With AI-native test management, MCP servers, and agent-based automation, TestMu AI supports Selenium, Appium, Playwright, and all major frameworks.

### Setting Up Your Authentication
With TestMu AI (Formerly LambdaTest), you can run Appium tests in Java with JUnit across real Android and iOS devices. This sample shows how to configure Java JUnit Appium tests with Maven to run on the TestMu AI Real Device Cloud.

Make sure you have your LambdaTest credentials with you to run test automation scripts on LambdaTest. To obtain your access credentials, [purchase a plan](https://billing.lambdatest.com/billing/plans?utm_source=github&utm_medium=repo&utm_campaign=LT-appium-java-junit) or access the [Automation Dashboard](https://appautomation.lambdatest.com/?utm_source=github&utm_medium=repo&utm_campaign=LT-appium-java-junit).
- [Sign up on TestMu AI](https://www.testmuai.com/register/) (Formerly LambdaTest).
- Follow the [TestMu AI Documentation](https://www.testmuai.com/support/docs/) for the full setup walkthrough.

Set LambdaTest `Username` and `Access Key` in environment variables.
### Prerequisites

**For Linux/macOS:**
- Java 8 or higher
- Maven
- A TestMu AI (Formerly LambdaTest) account with your username and access key

```bash
export LT_USERNAME="YOUR_LAMBDATEST_USERNAME" \
export LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR_LAMBDATEST_ACCESS_KEY"
```
### Setup

**For Windows:**
Clone and install dependencies:

```bash
set LT_USERNAME="YOUR_LAMBDATEST_USERNAME" `
set LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR_LAMBDATEST_ACCESS_KEY"
git clone https://github.com/LambdaTest/LT-appium-java-junit && cd LT-appium-java-junit
mvn clean install
```

### Upload Your Application

Upload your **_iOS_** application (.ipa file) or **_android_** application (.apk file) to the LambdaTest servers using our **REST API**. You need to provide your **Username** and **AccessKey** in the format `Username:AccessKey` in the **cURL** command for authentication. Make sure to add the path of the **appFile** in the cURL request. Here is an example cURL request to upload your app using our REST API:
Set your credentials as environment variables.

**Using App File:**

**For Linux/macOS:**
**macOS / Linux:**

```bash
curl -u "YOUR_LAMBDATEST_USERNAME:YOUR_LAMBDATEST_ACCESS_KEY" \
--location --request POST 'https://manual-api.lambdatest.com/app/upload/realDevice' \
--form 'name="Android_App"' \
--form 'appFile=@"/Users/macuser/Downloads/proverbial_android.apk"'
export LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME"
export LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR_ACCESS_KEY"
```

**For Windows:**
**Windows:**

```bash
curl -u "YOUR_LAMBDATEST_USERNAME:YOUR_LAMBDATEST_ACCESS_KEY" -X POST "https://manual-api.lambdatest.com/app/upload/realDevice" -F "appFile=@"/Users/macuser/Downloads/proverbial_android.apk""
set LT_USERNAME="YOUR_USERNAME"
set LT_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR_ACCESS_KEY"
```

**Using App URL:**

**For Linux/macOS:**
### Run tests

```bash
curl -u "YOUR_LAMBDATEST_USERNAME:YOUR_LAMBDATEST_ACCESS_KEY" \
--location --request POST 'https://manual-api.lambdatest.com/app/upload/realDevice' \
--form 'name="Android_App"' \
--form 'url="https://prod-mobile-artefacts.lambdatest.com/assets/docs/proverbial_android.apk"'
```

**For Windows:**

```bash
curl -u "YOUR_LAMBDATEST_USERNAME:YOUR_LAMBDATEST_ACCESS_KEY" -X POST "https://manual-api.lambdatest.com/app/upload/realDevice" -d "{"url":"https://prod-mobile-artefacts.lambdatest.com/assets/docs/proverbial_android.apk","name":"sample.apk"}"
```

**Tip:**

- If you do not have any **.apk** or **.ipa** file, you can run your sample tests on LambdaTest by using our sample :link: [Android app](https://prod-mobile-artefacts.lambdatest.com/assets/docs/proverbial_android.apk) or sample :link: [iOS app](https://prod-mobile-artefacts.lambdatest.com/assets/docs/proverbial_ios.ipa).
- Response of above cURL will be a **JSON** object containing the `App URL` of the format - <lt://APP123456789123456789> and will be used in the next step.

## Run Your First Test

Once you are done with the above-mentioned steps, you can initiate your first JUnit test on LambdaTest.

**Test Scenario**: Check out [android.java](https://github.com/LambdaTest/LT-appium-java-junit/blob/master/src/test/java/com/lambdatest/android.java) file to view the sample test script for android and [ios.java](https://github.com/LambdaTest/LT-appium-java-junit/blob/master/src/test/java/com/lambdatest/ios.java) for iOS.

### Configuring Your Test Capabilities

You can update your custom capabilities in test scripts. In this sample project, we are passing platform name, platform version, device name and app url (generated earlier) along with other capabilities like build name and test name via capabilities object. The capabilities object in the sample code are defined as:

<Tabs className="docs__val">
<TabItem value="android-config" label="Android" default>

```java
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();

capabilities.setCapability("build", "JUNIT Native App automation");
capabilities.setCapability("name", "Java JUnit Android Pixel 6");
capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "android");
capabilities.setCapability("deviceName", "Pixel 6"); //Enter the name of the device here
capabilities.setCapability("isRealMobile", true);
capabilities.setCapability("platformVersion","12");
capabilities.setCapability("app","YOUR_APP_URL"); //Enter the App ID here
capabilities.setCapability("deviceOrientation", "PORTRAIT");
capabilities.setCapability("console",true);
capabilities.setCapability("network",true);
capabilities.setCapability("visual",true);
```

</TabItem>

<TabItem value="ios-config" label="iOS" default>

```java
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();

capabilities.setCapability("build", "JUNIT Native App automation");
capabilities.setCapability("name", "Java JUnit iOS iPhone 12");
capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "ios");
capabilities.setCapability("deviceName", "iPhone 12");
capabilities.setCapability("isRealMobile", true);
capabilities.setCapability("platformVersion","15");
capabilities.setCapability("app","YOUR_APP_URL"); //Enter the APP_ID here
capabilities.setCapability("deviceOrientation", "PORTRAIT");
capabilities.setCapability("console",true);
capabilities.setCapability("network",true);
capabilities.setCapability("visual",true);
mvn test -P android
```

</TabItem>

</Tabs>

**Info Note:**

- You must add the generated **APP_URL** to the `"app"` capability in the config file.
- You can generate capabilities for your test requirements with the help of our inbuilt **[Capabilities Generator tool](https://www.lambdatest.com/capabilities-generator/beta/index.html?utm_source=github&utm_medium=repo&utm_campaign=LT-appium-java-junit)**. A more Detailed Capability Guide is available [here](https://www.lambdatest.com/support/docs/desired-capabilities-in-appium/?utm_source=github&utm_medium=repo&utm_campaign=LT-appium-java-junit).
