processArguments not being sent to app iOS10

The problem

I am using processArguments, but the app is not getting that information on startup.

Environment

• Appium version (or git revision) that exhibits the issue: Appium v1.6.0-beta2 (REV 9441a89f7e368f0c621db3a0cf9ab074c045ac3a)
• Last Appium version that did not exhibit the issue (if applicable): 1.4
• Desktop OS/version used to run Appium: MacOS 10.11.6
• Node.js version: 5.4.1
• Mobile platform/version under test: iOS10 iPhone 6s
• Real device or emulator/simulator: Simulator
• Appium CLI or Appium.app|exe: CLI

Details

The emulator does start, and the app launches, but the app logs tell me that the launchArguments are not being passed to the app. I am not sure if the arguments are being passed by WDA or not.

Code To Reproduce Issue [ Good To Have ]

` String[] baseURL = {"-baseURL "+MobileProperties.getProperty(“selected.environment”)}; JSONObject arguments = new JSONObject(); arguments.put(“args”, baseURL);

desiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities(); capabilities.setCapability(“automationName”, “XCUITest”); capabilities.setCapability(“platformName”, “iOS”); capabilities.setCapability(“platformVersion”, iOS_VERSION); capabilities.setCapability(“deviceName”, iOS_DEVICE); capabilities.setCapability(“app”, appPath); capabilities.setCapability(“autoLaunch”, true); capabilities.setCapability(“autoAcceptAlerts”, true); capabilities.setCapability(“sendKeyStrategy”, “grouped”); capabilities.setCapability(“processArguments”, arguments) ; capabilities.setCapability(“language”, iOS_Language); capabilities.setCapability(“locale”, iOS_REGION); capabilities.setCapability(“fullReset”, true); `

I would say you should add more logging to your app under test to see what it receives as arguments.

I do it like this and it works so far:

        final List<String> processArgs = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList(
                "--disable-autocorrection"
                ,"--debug-log-network"
        ));
        final JSONObject argsValue = new JSONObject();
        argsValue.put("args", processArgs);
        capabilities.setCapability("processArguments", argsValue.toString());
