Hello!
I’m creating autotests to android, using android emulator 8.1.0. I have several features (using cucumber),
- java 1.8
- appium 1.11.1
- java-client 6.1.0
(and no matter what appium I use, tryied downgrading to down to 1.8). When I start scope of tests (several features named high level scenarios with several test cases in each of it) I suddenly get the error creating session.
It can occure in first test and then several of next test could fail with this error (cannot create session) or not. Rest tests run successful. I pointed that this error occures in most cases on ubuntu server 16.04 with -no-screen on emulator.
On the real android device this problem does not occure. I delete session in the @After hooks from cucumber, and load appium server with nodejs.
Here are the error:
org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: Unable to create a new remote session. Please check the server log for more details.
