The error means Selenium dependencies are missed in the classpath

varun2810 · 2023-10-27T05:07:50Z

The issue happens in AppiumFieldDecorator initiate elements in page factory.

public LoginPage(AndroidDriver driver) {
this.driver = driver;
PageFactory.initElements(new AppiumFieldDecorator(driver), this);
}
@AndroidFindBy(id = "signinbtn")
public WebElement gettingStarted;

The above code works when i change the PageFactory.initElements(new AppiumFieldDecorator(driver), this); to PageFactory.initElements((driver), this);. But when i remove AppiumFieldDecorator, @AndroidFindby doesnt work.

varun2810 · 2023-10-27T05:11:10Z

Environment used :
Java : Jdk11
Jars used : Java-client-8.6.0
Selenium jars used : Selenium jars which is compiled with java-client-8.6.0

ashwithpoojary98 · 2023-11-12T15:47:50Z

@varun2810 check your pom file for jdk

uck82 · 2024-01-04T14:05:41Z

I can confirm the same issue on my side using Java-Client-8.6.0 in an Eclipse environment with jdk17.
Several approaches to enhance class loading failed.
I tried both: to only use the java-client dependency in the pom or to declare the respective depdencies themselves (seleniuem-remote-driver, byte-buddy, etc).
Verbose logging confirmed, that the RemoteWebElement class is loaded for the requested version (4.13.0).

Any update on this issue or a possible workaround, which allows the further use of AndroidFindby?

ranjanashish00 · 2024-01-11T09:31:19Z

Facing same issue.

Platform: Mac
JDK: 21
Appium Java Client: 8.5.1
Selenium Java: 4.10.0
Selenium Server: 4.0.0-alpha-2
webdrivermanager: 5.4.1

valfirst · 2024-01-18T08:21:05Z

@ranjanashish00 @uck82 @varun2810 please migrate to Appium Java client 9.0.0 and check if the issues is reproduced

ranjanashish00 · 2024-01-18T10:05:08Z

@valfirst So according to the matrix: https://github.com/appium/java-client?tab=readme-ov-file#compatibility-matrix
I have updated first to

appium: 8.6.0
selenium: 4.13.0
Still faing the issue: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openqa/selenium/remote/RemoteWebElement

Then I have updated

appium: 9.0.0
selenium: 4.14.1
Still facing the issue: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openqa/selenium/remote/RemoteWebElement

Then I have added below dependencyManagement, in-order to exclude Selenium from Appium

<dependencyManagement>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.appium</groupId>
            <artifactId>java-client</artifactId>
            <version>${appium.java.client}</version>
            <exclusions>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
                    <artifactId>selenium-support</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
                    <artifactId>selenium-remote-driver</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
                    <artifactId>selenium-api</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
            </exclusions>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

Still facing the issue: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openqa/selenium/remote/RemoteWebElement

Then I have updated:

selenium: 4.16.1
Still facing the issue: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openqa/selenium/remote/RemoteWebElement

valfirst · 2024-01-18T10:41:33Z

Then I have added below dependencyManagement, in-order to exclude Selenium from Appium

why is it needed? actually this is the reason of your problem

ranjanashish00 · 2024-01-18T14:59:40Z

I saw the Maven dependency that

selenium-support
selenium-remote-driver
selenium-api

were already included in latest Appium, So though of excluding them.

Nevertheless, I have removed dependencyManagement. So now the update looks like:

appium: 9.0.0
selenium: 4.16.1

Still facing the issue: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openqa/selenium/remote/RemoteWebElement

valfirst · 2024-01-18T15:44:01Z

@ranjanashish00 please share your full POM

ranjanashish00 · 2024-01-18T16:42:09Z

Here it is: https://gist.github.com/AshishHypr/820d7aade48e05d74dbdac4001958818
Please let me know if you need any other info and any info on this pom file

Thank you.

valfirst · 2024-01-18T18:10:43Z

@ranjanashish00 the pom you shared contains:

<appium.java.client>8.5.1</appium.java.client>
<selenium.version>4.10.0</selenium.version>

it's not

appium: 9.0.0
selenium: 4.16.1

At the same time it also has:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
        <artifactId>selenium-server</artifactId>
        <version>4.0.0-alpha-2</version>
    </dependency>

and set of other dependencies like webdrivermanager that may bring Selenium dependencies transitively.

I recommend to sanitize your classpath (after that the issue will gone).

ranjanashish00 · 2024-01-19T12:03:39Z

True, the pom which I shared is the complete pom file which I am using.
In that I have made changes as I had stated and mentioned the respective result, like updating appium/selenium to different versions.

I have removed selenium-server and still facing issue.

Regarding webdrivermanager, I would need it to create respeciver browser drivers. If I remove this dependency, it giver error for:
WebDriverManager.chromedriver().setup();

I have updated gist too.

One more thing I have observed:
the usual mvn clean test works fine but this command mvn clean test exec:java@rerunFailedTests triggers the error.
Why mvn clean test exec:java@rerunFailedTests: i have implemented logic to get the failed runs and then rerun it using exec-maven-plugin

<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.1.0</version>
<execution>
    <id>rerunFailedTests</id>
    <goals>
        <goal>java</goal>
    </goals>
</execution>
</executions>

And this triggers the error:

      java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openqa/selenium/remote/RemoteWebElement

ranjanashish00 · 2024-02-02T09:12:38Z

@valfirst Any suggestion here?

valfirst · 2024-02-02T12:11:41Z

@ranjanashish00 please try new version of Appium Java client

ranjanashish00 · 2024-02-02T15:26:10Z

@valfirst I have updated appium java client to 9.1.0 and now seeing:

In my project, I use selenium 4.11.0 and java-client 8.6.0
I use Appium server 2.x.x
I can run mobile test cases successful in locally but when I run on Jenkins, the issue happens

I have researched, the issue related to the compatibility of Selenium and Appium. I tried many version of them but issue still happens.
It's weird because issue happens with Jenkins only, in the same machine, I can run a test case successfully with the editor.

Facing the same issue when selenium client > 4.14.1 and java client > 9.0, Java version is required to > 11.

No issue when using selenium client = 4.13.0, Java client = 8.3.0 and Java version = 1.8

there should be some compatibility issues with new version of selenium, java client and Java.

Facing the same issue with:

Appium Java Client: 9.2.0
TestNG: 7.9.0
Selenium Java: 4.18.1
Appium: 2.5.1

loginWithValidCredentials_AUTHL01 : java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: io/appium/java_client/proxy/HasMethodCallListeners

Hi Team,
Issue with following one while running Appium using POM(PageFactory.initElements(new AppiumFieldDecorator(driver), this);
also tried with PageFactory.initElements(new AppiumFieldDecorator(driver), pageName.class);

@AndroidFindBy(id = "login")
@iOSXCUITFindBy(accessibility = "login")
private WebElement loginButton;

Exception throwing:
java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "org.openqa.selenium.WebElement.click()" because "this.loginButton" is null

JDK: 21.0.1
Appium Java Client: 9.2.0
TestNG: 7.9.0
Selenium Java: 4.18.1
Appium: 2.5.1
IDE: Eclipse
Platform: macOS Sonoma(Version 14.4)

Note: whereas tried with all listed versions of JAVA-CLIENT and SELENIUM JAVA in maven repository
As of now all versions in my pom.xml are latest ones though verified locally testng.xml where @AndroidFindBy and @iOSXCUITFindBy are working as expected, but through "mvn test exec:java" this command not letting reads the annotations and throwing with above exception of both platforms for Appium.

Whether issues are on PageFactory/annotations/versions on pom.xml, please give us some inputs to overcome this issue! Thanks in Advance Team!
