Appium: Unable to switch to WebView context on iOS 12.2

Created on 9 May 2019 · 69Comments · Source: appium/appium

The problem

Since the update to iOS 12.2, I am no longer able to switch into the web-view contexts on iOS Simulators.

Environment

Appium version (or git revision) that exhibits the issue: 1.13.0
Desktop OS/version used to run Appium: Mac OSX 10.14.4
Mobile platform/version under test: iOS 12.2
Real device or emulator/simulator: Simulator

Details

By using the same app, same appium version, same version of all the appium dependencies but by using iOS 12.1, the issue disappears and I'm able to correctly switch to web-views. By comparing the appium console log of the two executions (the correct one on iOS 12.1 and the failing one on iOS 12.2), it seems like there is a problem on the contexts returned by the AppiumDriver.getContexts() GET method. In particular, it seems like the webview attributes (title, url) are mapped to the native context PID. As a result, the GET method, as you can see in the attached appium log, returns an array composed of the NATIVE_APP context and a WEBVIEW context which actually maps the native context (please notice that the webview name is WEBVIEW_PID_OF_NATIVE_CONTEXT.2, where .2 indicates the second page of a context. As far as I've seen so far, in all successful executions the webview contexts end with a .1 suffix). When trying to switch to the returned WEBVIEW, an exception occurs.

Excerpt of the log of the failing execution:

I am experiencing the exact same problem

lucaGazzola on 9 May 2019

experiencing the same problem with the same settings.

mauropota on 9 May 2019

The failing logs look just how I would expect them to.

Can you post the _full_ logs? There is something else going wrong.

imurchie on 10 May 2019

Ok, I will post the full log as soon as possible. Meanwhile, could you please explain me why you say the output is what you expect? I mean, why in the failing execution (on iOS 12.2) the title and the url of the webview are associated with the first process (that is the native context), while in the successful execution (on iOS 12.1) the title and the url of the webview are associated with the second process (that is the webview context)? Could you explain me (for sake of curiosity) this difference and inconsistency?

Hi! I am having similar issue. Also with Appium 1.13.0 and iOS 12.2. Do you guys have any updates on it?
After investigation I found that Appium 1.13 with iOS 12.2 some times working if instead of driver.findElement(By).click is used custom tap action:

public void tapByElement(WebElement element) {
    Point location = element.getLocation();
    Dimension size = element.getSize();

    TouchAction touchAction = new TouchAction(device.getAppiumDriver());
    touchAction
        .press(PointOption.point((location.x + size.width / 2), (location.y + size.height / 2)))
        .release()
        .perform();
}

But it is unstable.

Appium 1.13 with iOS 12.1 is able to do driver.findElement(By).click.

Well, that is not the native context. It is just another app within the web inspector.

I'm concerned, seeing the full logs, that certain information is missing. I expect some debugging information to be there, before the actual contexts are seen:

Ok. The problem is the last entry, [email protected]. This should not be there (it is not a direct dependency of appium, and is a version too early to handle iOs 12.2 correctly.

Can you try to uninstall and reinstall Appium?

I confirm that the issue is still present after removing appium-remote-debugger 4.1.0.
The log regarding retrieving and setting the context is now the following one:

Hi! I am having similar issue. Also with Appium 1.13.0 and iOS 12.2. Do you guys have any updates on it?
After investigation I found that Appium 1.13 with iOS 12.2 some times working if instead of driver.findElement(By).click is used custom tap action:
public void tapByElement(WebElement element) {
  Point location = element.getLocation();
  Dimension size = element.getSize();

  TouchAction touchAction = new TouchAction(device.getAppiumDriver());
  touchAction
      .press(PointOption.point((location.x + size.width / 2), (location.y + size.height / 2)))
      .release()
      .perform();
}
But it is unstable.

Appium 1.13 with iOS 12.1 is able to do driver.findElement(By).click.

I also found element's click action with Appium 1.13.0 and iOS 12.2 is not reliable even it did work properly with Appium 1.13.0 and iOS 12.1. I will try to use customized tap action in the native app context

@lucaGazzola For some reason the Safari Web Inspector is not returning any valid pages. Can you see the page if you inspect from within Safari?

imurchie on 17 May 2019

is there any update on this issue? I have the same issue

simplezhang1990 on 20 May 2019

@lucaGazzola For some reason the Safari Web Inspector is not returning any valid pages. Can you see the page if you inspect from within Safari?

@imurchie if I run the application in the simulator by hand, when I inspect it with the safari inspector it shows two contexts, both selectable

if I run the test case with appium, when the test reaches the same webview, the inspector shows both contexts, but one is greyed out and hence not selectable
not_selectable

lucaGazzola on 20 May 2019

Updates from my side. I have updated my command line tools and issue does not reproduce anymore.

I have just resolved the issue by chance. First and foremost, there are indeed differences between iOS platform 12.1 and 12.2 (and even 12.3 I haven't tested it yet). From my side, please try to update the latest MacOS and Xcode (and Safari Technology Preview as above - if any). Then ensure removing and re-installing the latest Appium (1.13.0 thought) and WedriverIO (if you are using it). We even might need to do a fresh installation of brew formulae as diagnosed by appium-doctor. Hope it can help.

DungHoangNVG on 3 Jun 2019

@DungHoangNVG I tried what you suggested but the issue persists on my machine

lucaGazzola on 3 Jun 2019

@lucaGazzola Would you be open to letting me use your app? You can send it to [email protected] and I will keep it all confidential. I understand if you cannot, but since I can't reproduce this with the apps available to me, it's difficult to make any headway.

imurchie on 3 Jun 2019

Following as I am also running into the same issue

lfalkner on 10 Jun 2019

Our team has been through many issues that probably took days to resolve but after all, the underlying issue might come from your own environment preparation and installation. I'm sure that our team can run on sim iOS 12.2 without problems.

DungHoangNVG on 11 Jun 2019

Very similar issue faced on latest iOS 12.3.1 with Appium v1.14.0-beta.1 (REV 39c03cfabcadf626aabee44a8cb512cfaa915f5f)

I have tried with:

Xcode: 10.2.1 (10E1001)
MacOS: 10.14.5 (18F132)
iOS: 12.3.1 (real device)
Appium source: 1.14.0-beta.1 (REV 39c03cfabcadf626aabee44a8cb512cfaa915f5f)
uninstall and install of appium@beta
[email protected]

@imurchie do you want me to open a new issue for iOS 12.3.1?

ashishyadav2020 on 11 Jun 2019

@DungHoangNVG Could you post a gist with your appium log? I'm not sure our issues are related
@imurchie unfortunately I can't share the application, but I will try and reproduce it on another one

lucaGazzola on 11 Jun 2019

It's got to do with target maintenance, it seems. I will explore a little more.

imurchie on 11 Jun 2019

Our team �has been through many issues that probably took days to resolve but after all, the underlying issue might come from your own environment preparation and installation. I'm sure that our team can run on sim iOS 12.2 without problems.

Could we get a hint on what we need to do to fix our environments? I've tried all the suggestions on this thread and still am getting the same response of 'Target not found'.

Xcode: 10.2.1 (10E1001)

MacOS: 10.14.5

iOS: 12.2 (simulator)

Appium source: 1.14.0-beta.1 (REV 39c03cf)

uninstall and install of appium@beta

[email protected]

lfalkner on 11 Jun 2019

I still cannot reproduce locally, but I have some ideas about the problem. Once a fix is published I will report here for you to try it out.

Thank you for the patience!

imurchie on 11 Jun 2019

[email protected] has been published, with what I hope is some logic that will help. If you reinstall the beta you ought to get it. If you could try it and post here the results (logs, as a https://gist.github.com).

imurchie on 11 Jun 2019

thank you @imurchie , I will try asap

lucaGazzola on 11 Jun 2019

My environment is:

after updating to [email protected], It is now able to switch to WebView on iOS 12.3.1.
@imurchie Thank you so much man!

anyone struggling, I have tried following:

Install fresh appium@beta or try 'npm uninstall appium && npm install appium@beta' (use -g if running globally).
update [email protected]

@imurchie when we can expect this in standard Appium release?

ashishyadav2020 on 12 Jun 2019

I still experience the same problem, but the error message seems different from the one I used to get. Here you can find the full appium log.

lucaGazzola on 12 Jun 2019

@lucaGazzola This is a different issue than some. Can you tell me the type of webview it is that is supposed to be there? UiWebView? WkWebView? SafariViewController? That sort if thing. Any details that might help me reproduce and, hopefully, fix.

imurchie on 12 Jun 2019

Thanks so much for digging into this! I'm seeing the same behavior as @lucaGazzola. I'm still unable to switch contexts, with the new error message.

lfalkner on 12 Jun 2019

@lfalkner What is the new error message? Can you post the logs, as a link to a https://gist.github.com? I'd love to get this working for everyone!

@imurchie WkWebView

lucaGazzola on 12 Jun 2019

@lfalkner Can you provide the _full_ logs? I'd like to see if the targets are coming in and we are losing them somehow. Or if it is never being reported at all. Which would break some assumptions I've made.

imurchie on 12 Jun 2019

@lucaGazzola Ok. I'll modify my tests. Thanks!

imurchie on 12 Jun 2019

https://gist.github.com/lfalkner/048d10ab77713d28722eee6ee176d9aa
Thanks again!

lfalkner on 12 Jun 2019

@lucaGazzola Well, it's not the _fact_ of it being a WkWebView, since I can run tests against one. :(

Now I guess we move to questions of ios-webkit-debug-proxy and its dependencies.

What is the output of:

brew list --versions usbmuxd
brew list --versions ios-webkit-debug-proxy
brew list --versions libimobiledevice

imurchie on 12 Jun 2019

usbmuxd HEAD-873252d_1
ios-webkit-debug-proxy HEAD-fa3e206
libimobiledevice HEAD-eea4f1b_3

lfalkner on 12 Jun 2019

I guess you also installed ideviceinstaller. A hint from me, even though the installation of ideviceinstaller will also deliver its dependency libimobiledevice (might be the latest), another sole installation of libimobiledevice is still necessary to rebuild utility with the latest HEAD.

DungHoangNVG on 13 Jun 2019

@imurchie

usbmuxd 1.0.10_1
ios-webkit-debug-proxy 1.8.4
libimobiledevice 1.2.0_3

lucaGazzola on 13 Jun 2019

@lucaGazzola Can you try upgrading these, to HEAD on all? There have been updates to them to account for developments in recent iOS versions.

brew uninstall ios-webkit-debug-proxy && brew install ios-webkit-debug-proxy --HEAD and such for all three?

imurchie on 13 Jun 2019

@imurchie just to follow up, I'm able to automate on a physical device, using the same setup, but I'm not able to automate using a simulator. I'm not sure if that helps provide any insight.

lfalkner on 13 Jun 2019

I tried updating to head, now I have these versions for the dependencies you recommended:

usbmuxd HEAD-ca24570_1
ios-webkit-debug-proxy HEAD-fa3e206
libimobiledevice HEAD-ddba0b5_3

but the problem still persist:

@ashishyadav2020 is this the same issue you faced?

https://github.com/appium/appium/issues/12698

abilashkar on 18 Jun 2019

@abilashkar for #12698, you mentioned that switch between WEBVIEW and NATIVE is happening (though your Appium logs having very much similar exception).
But here it is problem with initial switch to WEBVIEW.

ashishyadav2020 on 18 Jun 2019

Hi All,
We are experiencing the same issue. Did any one find a work around or resolution for the same. If yes, can you please share. It helps and thanks in advance.

chandra306 on 1 Jul 2019

@chandra306 yes we have resolved this issue please refer https://github.com/appium/appium/issues/12698

Thank you abilashkar.

chandra306 on 1 Jul 2019

wonder if there are any news on this? maybe some downgrade options?
Had to reinstall (unrelated to this issue) all the macos and now found experiencing this - also with [email protected] and ios-webkit-debug-proxy/HEAD-bbac872

ciekawy on 27 Jul 2019

sem-good news - can confirm that afer installing iOS 12.1 all works good which is acceptable for me for the time being...

ciekawy on 27 Jul 2019

Well, that is not the native context. It is just another app within the web inspector.

I'm concerned, seeing the full logs, that certain information is missing. I expect some debugging information to be there, before the actual contexts are seen:

have you solve this issue ? we face same issue

sumitgos on 22 Nov 2019

Ok. The problem is the last entry, [email protected]. This should not be there (it is not a direct dependency of appium, and is a version too early to handle iOs 12.2 correctly.

Can you try to uninstall and reinstall Appium?

yes we did but still we face same issue
