Hi garecanbp

You should be able to simply call the CloseApp() method to close the app:

_devce.MobileDevice("//MobileDevice").CloseApp()

To relaunch the app, you will need to script a MobileBaseState:

dim baseState as New MobileBaseState("deviceName=Pixel 2;platformName=Android;appPackage=my.app;appActivity=.MainActivity")
baseState.Execute()

could we set the base state value to get automatically the value from the App Config?

Unfortunately we cannot retrieve the App Config details from a Workbench script at runtime.

You should however be able to get the various device details after you intially connect to the device and construct a connection string. For example:

        Dim deviceId As String = _desktop.MobileDevice("Device").DeviceId
        Dim osType As MobileOperatingSystem = _desktop.MobileDevice("Device").OperatingSystem
        Dim osVersion As String = _desktop.MobileDevice("Device").OsVersion

Hi Robert,

Is it possible to retrieve the AppPackage?

You can dynamically invoke the Appium driver methods to get this information:

            Console.WriteLine(_desktop.MobileDevice("//MobileDevice").Invoke("getCurrentPackage"))
            Console.WriteLine(_desktop.MobileDevice("//MobileDevice").Invoke("currentActivity"))

I hope that helps.
