As of version (placeholder for version), Appium Inspector can be launched with a file with the '.appiumsession' extension.
When opening Appium inspector, if you fill in the capabilities and server info and hit File > Save
you will be prompted to save the .appiumsession
file to a location in your file system. After closing Appium Inspector, you can re-open Appium Inspector by launching your newly created .appiumsession
. If you change the contents of your capabilities or your server info during an Appium inspector, clicking "Save" will overwrite the contents.
This will save a .appiumsession
file, except to a new location on your file system.
This will open an existing .appiumsession
file.
The .appiumsession
file is a JSON file that contains a slice of the Redux state of the Appium Inspector redux app. The file contains server info and capabilities, so that when a .appiumsession
is launched, the capabilities will be automatically set.
