Appium Logs

The Appium Log on the Logs tab in your test results indicates that the test ran using the Appium driver. The first line of the log provides information about the Appium version used during your test (for example, info: Welcome to Appium v1.4.0).

To find logging specific to your OS:

  • iOS - The iOS Simulator log is embedded in the Appium log. The information from the iOS Simulator is grayed out throughout the Appium log and has the tag name info: [IOS_SYSLOG_ROW].
  • Android - Android Emulator logs are in the Logcat.log file. This file contains all the information from the Android Emulator log.
