Description

"Finger 1" in the emulator window is not corresponding to the adb command adb -e emu finger touch 1

Environment

  • java client build version 6.0.0-BETA4
  • Appium server version 1.8.0-beta3
  • Desktop OS Mac OS X 10.13.3
  • Node.js version 8.2.1
  • Mobile platform: Android Emulator Api 27
  • emulator

Details

I tried to automate the fingerprint interaction with an android emulator. In sum the feature works pretty fine, but the description is a bit misleading. The following adb command which is executed by the server is not really corresponding to the Finger 1 to 10 in an Android Emulator. (at least not in my setup). I think the java doc is quite misleading here.

adb -e emu finger touch < finger_id >

The finger id could be an integer value such as "354586". I tried to enroll this fingerprint and also called the command by driver.fingerPrint(354586). And it works fine.
