How to handle permission pop-ups in TestNG with Appium on LambdaTest

While performing app automation testing with appium on LambdaTest Grid, you may face a scenario where you would like to automatically handle permission pop-ups. You may choose to either accept all permission pop-ups or dismiss all of them. You can handle the case as mentioned below separately for Android or iOS apps. You can refer to sample test repo here.

Steps:

The following is an example on how to handle permissions in the capabilities in the automation script.

import io.appium.java_client.AppiumDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;
import io.appium.java_client.MobileElement;
import java.net.URL;

public class AndroidApp {

    String userName = System.getenv("LT_USERNAME") == null ?
            "username" : System.getenv("LT_USERNAME"); //Enter your username here
    String accessKey = System.getenv("LT_ACCESS_KEY") == null ?
            "accessKey" : System.getenv("LT_ACCESS_KEY"); //Enter your accessKey here

    public String gridURL = "@mobile-hub.lambdatest.com/wd/hub";

    AppiumDriver driver;

    @Test
    @org.testng.annotations.Parameters(value = {"device", "version", "platform"})
    public void AndroidApp1() {
        try {
            DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
                capabilities.setCapability("build","Enter_your_build_name"); //Enter your build name here
                capabilities.setCapability("name","Enter_your_test_name"); //Enter your test name here
                capabilities.setCapability("deviceName", "Galaxy S21 5G");
                capabilities.setCapability("platformVersion","12");
                capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "Android");
                capabilities.setCapability("isRealMobile", true);
                capabilities.setCapability("app", "lt://"); //Enter your app url here

                //GRANT PERMISSIONS FOR ANDROID
                capabilities.setCapability("autoGrantPermissions", true);
                
                //ACCEPT ALERTS FOR IOS
                capabilities.setCapability("autoAcceptAlerts", true);
                
                //DISMISS ALERTS FOR IOS
                capabilities.setCapability("autoDismissAlerts", false);

            String hub = "https://" + userName + ":" + accessKey + gridURL;
            driver = new AppiumDriver(new URL(hub), capabilities);

            MobileElement color = (MobileElement) driver.findElementById("com.lambdatest.proverbial:id/color");
            color.click();
            MobileElement text = (MobileElement) driver.findElementById("com.lambdatest.proverbial:id/Text");
            text.click();
            MobileElement toast = (MobileElement) driver.findElementById("com.lambdatest.proverbial:id/toast");
            toast.click();
            MobileElement notification = (MobileElement) driver.findElementById("com.lambdatest.proverbial:id/notification");
            notification.click();
            Thread.sleep(2000);

            driver.quit();

        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
            driver.quit();
            }
        }
     }

Run your test

mvn clean install -DsuiteXmlFile=src/test/java/Android.xml

Your test results would be displayed on the test console (or command-line interface if you are using terminal/cmd) and on the LambdaTest App Automation Dashboard.
