First, we need to start our avd, so that appium can connect to it and run test afterwards.
emulator -avd nexus5
# nexus5 is the avd name, which we input when creating avd
You can use adb devices
to check the Android emulator or device is connected.
Now we can run the sample test "xunit_android.rb" to see how appium works:
Please make sure the appium is running at background.
cd ~/Documents/appium-master/sample-code/examples/ruby
ruby xunit_android.rb
