Interesting… Unable to find instrumentation target package: com.xero.payday.dev means the instrumentation process was not able to detect the package. The typical case is the device does not have the package. i don’t have any good ideas except for it…
Appium builds the espresso server as
./gradlew -PappiumTargetPackage=com.xero.payday.dev app:assembleAndroidTestand launches it viaadb shell am instrument -w -e debug false -e disableAnalytics true io.appium.espressoserver.test/androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner. Then, the application under test also launches (by Espresso framework outside Appium). Some application requires additional dependencies in the espresso server, then you should coordinate Espresso Build Config as I posted before. (You can observe such launching errors via logcat.)Issue got resolved after removing this from my caps
