Appium automation test foundation - Supplement: app package name and appactivity

1、 Package name

Package name （appPackage） stay Android In the system, it is a judgment App Unique identification of , Different App Can have the same name , But its package name cannot be the same .
For example, I can compile and generate a App Also called “ WeChat ”, But I App The package name of cannot be com.tencent.mm（ Wechat package name ）, If the package name I specified is consistent with wechat , Then only these two can be installed on a mobile phone App One of them .

• Speaking of this, many people will have questions , As like as two peas, WeChat will be the same as anyone who has done the same thing. App, The name and package name are the same as wechat , How can I tell ？
  Android In order to prevent this , Also made a thing called signature , Generally, we don't have a wechat signature , So it can be identified by signature App Whose is it , If you are interested, you can learn about the signature , I won't go into that here .

Here are several ways to view package names ：

（1） Look at the source code

Usually we test App All from their own companies App, So when the source code , We can easily know its package name .
Find... In the project directory “AndroidManifest.xml” The file of （ Is the configuration file in the project ）, After opening , Here's the picture ：

So that we can find package This item can be viewed .

（2） View mobile system settings

Let me introduce Google native system here , Some other millet 、 Meizu and other customized systems also have similar viewing methods .
Operation steps ：
“ Set up ” -> “ application ” -> “ Running ”（ This step needs attention ）-> Select the app you want to view .
This time you can see , Here's the picture ：

（3） see /data/data/ Catalog

When we install an app , The system will be in  /data/data/ Create a directory under the directory , And the file name is the package name of the current application , Let's take a look at the files in this directory on the mobile phone ：

If you know what you want to see App A keyword in the package name , It will find the package name of your application faster , Otherwise, it is recommended to use other methods . This method requires root.

（4）GT Software

GT The interface comes with this function , Download from app GT, Then select an application under test , You can see , Here's the picture ：

2、 Start name

Start name （appActivity） It can also be called the startup page .
In a nutshell appActivity Refers to App The page we see in , A page is a appActivity, Usually the page that starts on the first page is called “ Startup page ”.
We're doing automated testing , Usually the first step is to start the application under test , And the way to start is to use “ Package name / Startup page ”, Therefore, we usually need to know this in the process of testing appActivity The name of .
Let me introduce several ways to view the startup page appActivity Methods .

（1） Look at the source code

Similarly, in the source code, we can directly find the start page Activity The name of . Here you need to find the project directory  AndroidManifest.xml Configuration files , The file contains category The value of is android.intent.category.LAUNCHER” Of appActivity That's what we're looking for ：

When we know the startup page appActivity after , You can enter the command directly ：
adb shell am start com.bryan.testbattery/com.bryan.testbattery.activity.MainActivity
Pull up the application .

（2）Logcat

close App, open Logcat, Then start your App, Look carefully at this time log journal , commonly tag by ActivityManager I'll record such a paragraph log, And here is the start page appActivity, Here's the picture ：

（3）dump package Package name

After using the command to view , The same is to find that contains category.LAUNCHER Wording appActivity that will do .

（4）Monkey

Monkey You can set the detail level of the log , When we specify -VVV When , And specify the simulated random event as once , You can view it ：

a key ： Supporting learning materials and video teaching

So here I have carefully prepared the detailed information of the above outline in The link below is as follows
