FAILED CONFIGURATION: @BeforeTest setUp org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException

Question

Hi guys I am manual tester wanting to switch to automated testing.

But I have issue that I havent been able to solve on my own, could you please help me ?

I have installed Appium and Eclipse trying to run simple test on my android real device, but I always get this message:

FAILED CONFIGURATION: @BeforeTest setUp
org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: Unable to create new remote session. desired capabilities = Capabilities [{appPackage=com.android.calculator2, appActivity=com.android.calculator2.Calculator, browserName=Android, platformName=Android, deviceName=ZX1B32FFXF, version=4.4.2}], required capabilities = Capabilities [{}]
 

What am I missing, could you help ?

Can you tell us what steps did you follow? This will help us analyze the issue.

Answer 1

It looks like you have an issue with desired capabilities. Kindly check if you have desired capability set properly. I doubt your device is connected. And if connected, your device name might be wrong.
