appium V1.5.x变化

使用 npm安装 appium之后，会发现已经进入1.5

[Appium] Welcome to Appium v1.5.0

[Appium] Appium REST http interface listener started on 0.0.0.0:4723

npm -g install appium

那么问题就来了，1.5 究竟有什么变化？

从官方的change list： https://github.com/appium/appium/releases 可以看粗，主要有以下变化

• Deprecate server arguments that are also desired capabilities. Instead, add a --default-capabilities argument which takes a JSON string of capabilities that will be the default for any session. E.g., --default-capabilities '{"launchTimeout": 60000}' 增加使用JSON字符串作为sever 参数
• Remove long-deprecated name locator strategy 废除findByName 的定位方式  大坑

iOS

• add Tapster support for some more touch methods
• iPhone 6 + 6S support 
• iOS 9.3 support

Android

• enable navigating to an android URI via the set url driver methods, e.g., driver.get('content://contacts/people/1')
• fix some adb issues in Windows (e.g., signWithCustomCert, sdk binary names)
• fix issue with UIWatcher ssl certificate errors
• if you want to install all chromedrivers, use --chromedriver-install-all; if you want to install a specific chromedriver version, use --chromedriver-version="$VER"
• driver.closeApp no longer runs through the shutdown routine; it simply force-stops the app
• The ANDROID_ADB_SERVER_PORT environment variable has been removed in favor of the adbPortdesired capability, which does the same thing.

这里一定要留意，如果之前写的有使用findByName，千万不要急着更新到1.5
