Question

I have some webview in my application and need to automate but while trying  to capture element locator it can not support by appium. So how to enable webview debugger so it can be supported by appium.

Answer 1

you will have to work with your developer and ask them to enable WebView debugging. For enabling WebView debugging they will have to set WebContentsDebuggingEnabled on the WebView class.

Once that is set, you can use chrome remote debugger and identify elements inside WebView for the Appium.
