Inside Mobly Test
To use in a Mobly test, the Android device needs to be initialized in the Mobly base test.
from mobly import base_test from mobly.controllers import android_device class MoblyTest(base_test.BaseTestClass): def setup_class(self): ad = self.register_controller(android_device)[0]
-
Outside Mobly Test
If not using in a Mobly test, such as when running in a Python terminal, the Android device can be initialized with its serial number.
from mobly.controllers import android_device ad = android_device.AndroidDevice('GOOG1234567890')

Warning
UiAutomation is a service that can only be used by one app at a time. If this service is already being registered by another app, Snippet UiAutomator will not be able to start. To resolve this issue, stop the app holding the UiAutomation service before calling Snippet UiAutomator.
Snippet UiAutomator supports launching as one of Mobly Android Device Service.
