ERROR - Installing Appium in a Spring Boot Project- Maven Dependencies Break

Time:08-24

I'm trying to install appium on a Spring boot project - according to here https://github.com/appium/java-client/blob/master/docs/Installing-the-project.md

When running a simple script I got this ERROR:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openqa/selenium/internal/Require at io.appium.java_client.remote.options.BaseOptions.setCapability(BaseOptions.java:144) at io.appium.java_client.remote.options.CanSetCapability.amend(CanSetCapability.java:30) at io.appium.java_client.remote.options.BaseOptions.setPlatformName(BaseOptions.java:86) at io.appium.java_client.android.options.UiAutomator2Options.setCommonOptions(UiAutomator2Options.java:222) at io.appium.java_client.android.options.UiAutomator2Options.(UiAutomator2Options.java:208) at com.aniview.testService.content.initAppium.main(initAppium.java:25) Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.openqa.selenium.internal.Require at java.base/jdk.internal.loader.BuiltinClassLoader.loadClass(BuiltinClassLoader.java:641) at java.base/jdk.internal.loader.ClassLoaders$AppClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoaders.java:188) at java.base/java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:521) ... 6 more

My script:

import io.appium.java_client.AppiumBy;
import io.appium.java_client.AppiumDriver;
import io.appium.java_client.android.AndroidDriver;
import io.appium.java_client.android.options.UiAutomator2Options;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.time.Duration;

public class initAppium {

static AppiumDriver driver;

public static void main(String[] args) throws MalformedURLException, InterruptedException {
    URL url = new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub");
    UiAutomator2Options options = new UiAutomator2Options()
            .setDeviceName("emulator-5554 (sdk_gphone64_arm64 - Android 12)")
            .setUdid("emulator-5554")

            .setAutoWebview(true)
            .eventTimings();

    driver = new AppiumDriver(url, options);

    System.out.println("Application started");
}

When I tried to run this script on a fresh new project just with this dependency:

  <dependency>
    <groupId>io.appium</groupId>
    <artifactId>java-client</artifactId>
    <version>8.1.1</version>
</dependency>

It worked as expected and didn't errored. I know that java-client contain already selenium libs but I tried to remove them and it still errors.

What I noticed is: When I adding all my dependencies to the fresh project EXCEPT the spring boot dependencies the fresh project works GOOD. BUT when i adding the 2 dependencies of spring and the parent (spring-boot-starter-parent) it FAILS. So I guess it's something with the spring dependencies maybe specific with the parent dependency.

How can I solve that ?

Environment - Mac, M1 pro, Intelij, Maven, Java 18

Thanks.

SOLVED

I found out that <parent> tag is overriding the dependencies (in my case "spring-boot-starter-parent" overrode Selenium jars) So I navigated to ~/.m2/repository/org/springframework/boot/spring-boot-dependencies/2.6.3/spring-boot-dependencies-2.6.3.pom changed those: <selenium.version>4.4.0</selenium.version> <selenium-htmlunit.version>2.64.0</selenium-htmlunit.version>

Actually I could update my spring-boot to 2.7.2 and it should work as well.
