Is there a way to run Appium tests in headless mode (like PhantomJS for selenium)?

I tried these caps but it doesn't work:

caps.setCapability("automationName", "UiAutomator2");

caps.setCapability("deviceName", "Android_9-5i");

caps.setCapability("platformVersion", "9");

caps.setCapability("platformName", "Android");

caps.setCapability("isHeadless", true);



caps.setCapability("appPackage", "XXX");

caps.setCapability("appActivity", "XXX");

caps.setCapability("avd", "Android_9-5i");

I got this line:

caps.setCapability("isHeadless", true);

from the appium documentation, but it still open the emulator though.

You are using the correct way and generally it works, make sure you are running the latest Appium server version: v1.9.1

Also there is a known workaround:
caps.setCapability("avdArgs", "-no-window");

Which is doing exactly the same

If it won't work, it maybe be related to emulator.
