  • [MAJOR ENHANCEMENT]: Migration to Java 8. Epic: #399
    • API with default implementation. PR #470
    • Tools that provide Page Object engines were redesigned. The migration to repeatable annotations. Details you can read there: #497. Documentation was synced as well.
    • The new functional interface io.appium.java_client.functions.AppiumFunction was designed. It extends java.util.function.Function and com.google.common.base.Function. It was designed in order to provide compatibility with the org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.Wait #543
    • The new functional interface io.appium.java_client.functions.ExpectedCondition was designed. It extends io.appium.java_client.functions.AppiumFunction and org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedCondition. #543
    • The new functional interface io.appium.java_client.functions.ActionSupplier was designed. It extends java.util.function.Supplier. #543
  • [MAJOR ENHANCEMENT]: Migration from Maven to Gradle. Feature request is #214. Fixes: #442, #465.
  • [MAJOR ENHANCEMENT] [MAJOR REFACTORING]. Non-abstract AppiumDriver:

    • Now the io.appium.java_client.AppiumDriver can use an instance of any io.appium.java_client.MobileBy subclass for the searching. It should work as expected when current session supports the given selector. It will throw org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException otherwise. #462

    • The new interface io.appium.java_client.FindsByFluentSelector was added. #462

    • API was redesigned:

      these interfaces were marked deprecated and they are going to be removed #513#514:

      • io.appium.java_client.DeviceActionShortcuts
      • io.appium.java_client.android.AndroidDeviceActionShortcuts
      • io.appium.java_client.ios.IOSDeviceActionShortcuts

      instead following inerfaces were designed:

      • io.appium.java_client.HasDeviceTime
      • io.appium.java_client.HidesKeyboard
      • io.appium.java_client.HidesKeyboardWithKeyName
      • io.appium.java_client.PressesKeyCode
      • io.appium.java_client.ios.ShakesDevice
      • io.appium.java_client.HasSessionDetails
        That was done because Windows automation tools have some features that were considered as Android-specific and iOS-specific.

      The list of classes and methods which were marked deprecated and they are going to be removed

      • AppiumDriver#swipe(int, int, int, int, int)
      • AppiumDriver#pinch(WebElement)
      • AppiumDriver#pinch(int, int)
      • AppiumDriver#zoom(WebElement)
      • AppiumDriver#zoom(int, int)
      • AppiumDriver#tap(int, WebElement, int)
      • AppiumDriver#tap(int, int, int, int)
      • AppiumDriver#swipe(int, int, int, int, int)
      • MobileElement#swipe(SwipeElementDirection, int)
      • MobileElement#swipe(SwipeElementDirection, int, int, int)
      • MobileElement#zoom()
      • MobileElement#pinch()
      • MobileElement#tap(int, int)
      • io.appium.java_client.SwipeElementDirection and io.appium.java_client.TouchebleElement also were marked deprecated.

      redesign of TouchAction and MultiTouchAction

      • constructors were redesigned. There is no strict binding of AppiumDriver and TouchAction /MultiTouchAction. They can consume any instance of a class that implements PerformsTouchActions.
      • io.appium.java_client.ios.IOSTouchAction was added. It extends io.appium.java_client.TouchAction.
      • the new interface io.appium.java_client.PerformsActions was added. It unifies TouchAction and MultiTouchAction now. #543

      JsonToMobileElementConverter re-design #532:

      • unused MobileElementToJsonConverter was removed
      • JsonToMobileElementConverter is not rhe abstract class now. It generates instances of MobileElement subclasses according to current session parameters
      • JsonToAndroidElementConverter is deprecated now
      • JsonToIOSElementConverter is depreacated now
      • JsonToYouiEngineElementConverter is deprecated now.
