Select a device based on supported features

The Appium driver selects the device to automate as part of the instantiation of the driver object. Identifying the device to select is based on setting the set of DesiredCapabilities.

Perfecto also lets you add Perfecto-related capabilities when selecting a device. For example, if the test case you want to run requires a device that supports the set Location feature and does not support the touch ID feature, you need to specify the following capabilities:

Copy
capabilities.setCapability("perfecto:fingerPrintSupport", false);
capabilities.setCapability("perfecto:setLocationSupport", true);

If the test case you want to run requires a Samsung Galaxy device running Android 5 or Android 6 and supports the motion Injection feature, you need to specify the following capabilities: 

Copy
capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "Android");
capabilities.setCapability("platformVersion", "[56].*");
capabilities.setCapability("manufacturer", "Samsung");
capabilities.setCapability("model", "Galaxy.*");
capabilities.setCapability("perfecto:motionInjectionSupport", true);

To select the device based on supported features, use any of the capabilities specified in the following table.
