Can't run Android Appium tests "this.shell(...).trim is not a function"

The problem

Since I upgraded appium from 1.4.9 to 1.6.0 I’m not able to run my python appium tests anymore.

Environment

• Appium version (or git revision) that exhibits the issue: 1.6.0
• Last Appium version that did not exhibit the issue (if applicable): 1.4.9
• Desktop OS/version used to run Appium: OS X El Capitan 10.11.6
• Node.js version (unless using Appium.app|exe): 5.7.1
• Mobile platform/version under test: Android
• Real device or emulator/simulator: Real device, Sony Xperia Z3
• Appium CLI or Appium.app|exe: Appium CLI

Code To Reproduce Issue [ Good To Have ]

This is my desired capabilities:

    self.desired_caps['platformName'] = 'Android'
    self.desired_caps['platformVersion'] = '6.0.1'
    self.desired_caps['deviceName'] = 'Android'
    self.desired_caps['automationName'] = "Appium"
    self.desired_caps['app'] = self.app_file
    self.desired_caps['app-package'] = 'com.axis.acc'
    self.desired_caps['appActivity'] = self.START_ACTIVITY
    self.desired_caps['appWaitActivity'] = '%s,%s,%s' % \
       (OAuthView.ACTIVITY, self.START_ACTIVITY, SitesView.ACTIVITY)
    self.desired_caps['newCommandTimeout'] = '6000'

I’ve tried with other platform versions but they seem to give the same result. Appium manages to start the app but then 1 sec after appium kills the app.

[jlipps]

it should look like this:

let stdout = (await this.shell(["ps"])).trim();

and not this:

let stdout = await this.shell(["ps"]).trim();

And that’s how you’ll know you’ve got the right version of appium-adb
