Quick guide

Requirements

• A good PC (Potato PC may have problems running the emulator correctly)
• Python installed and added to PATH (is highly recommended 3.7.6 64bit version only)
• Latest ADB added to PATH.
• I don't know how to add to PATH
• The use of a virtual environment (venv) in python is highly recommended
• ADB debugging enabled and emulator with 1280x720 resolution
• Read the entire guide before asking any questions.

How to create e python virtual environment

• First install Python

• Create a folder where you will put the virtual environment, I recommend creating a folder venv in the project's root directory

• Go to project root in command line

• type python -m venv path_to_your_folder\venv

  

  You can see that now python has created some folders and files in the venv folder, it has created a completely clean virtual environment, thus preventing any conflicts.

• Now, it is necessary to activate the virtual environment in command line, go to project root (the same where you have the file alas.py) and type .\venv\scripts\activate.bat

  

  Look that a (venv), with that we know that we are in a virtual environment.

  If you type pip list should get this output:

  

  Now, you can proceed with the installation of the requirements through pip install -r requirements.txt

Installation

• Clone this repository

• Install the requirements.txt (pip install -r requirements.txt)

• Install an android emulator (Tested on BlueStacks)

• The android emulator resolution must be set to 1280x720

• Test if the ADB is working correctly adb devices

  The output must be something like this

  

  Test if your Python is working correctly python --version

  

• Install uiautomator2

uiautomator2, is an automated test library that can speed up screenshots and clicks. You can also use ADB to perform screenshots and clicks, but it is a slower way.

For performance optimization, it is recommended to use ADB screenshots, uiautomat2 screenshot slightly faster than adb screenshot, but cpu consumption double.

• Perform

  python -m uiautomator2 init

  The output must be something like this:

  (in this case, I had already installed)

• Check if uiautomator2 was installed successfully

Modify the serial in \dev_tools\emulator_test.py line 31 and, execute from root project directory (the same where you have the file alas.py)

python -m dev_tools.emulator_test

The output must be something like this:

The default serial for some emulators:

Android Emulator	serial
NoxPlayer	127.0.0.1:62001
MuMuPlayer	127.0.0.1:7555
Bluestacks	127.0.0.1:5555
LDPlayer	emulator-5554

You can check a new app installed in your emulator:

If you open up can check if are running:

If are not running, you cannot use U2 and will get error.

How to use Use

Double-click alas.pyw to run via graphical interface (GUI), If dont work you can double-click alas.bat or type py alas_en.pyw from command line to open the GUI

Multi-usage: copy alas.pyw, and rename, double-click run on it. The settings of template.ini are copied when the first run runs. The script runtime uses the ini profile of the same name.
