Is there an existing issue for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

Sometimes webdriver.Remote will hang, and it will timeout at any point.
The same goes for using find_elements, if WDA crashes/hangs, then it will never timeout.

I've tried setting appium:newCommandTimeout to 5, but it will still just hang forever.
The only thing I've found that worked, was sitting driver.command_executor.keep_alive = False and driver.command_executor.set_timeout(5).

It's quite unclear, what the best/correct way, is to set a timeout for "anything" so that it cannot just hang indefinitely.

Expected Behavior

That it would timeout after 5 seconds, and there would be a clear documented way of doing this.

Minimal Reproducible Example

from appium import webdriver
from appium.webdriver.common.appiumby import AppiumBy

ios_caps = {
    "appium:automationName": "XCUITest",
    "platformName": "iOS",
    "appium:udid": "00008020-001655400E82002E",
    "appium:webDriverAgentUrl": "http://localhost:7777",
    "appium:newCommandTimeout": 5,
}

driver = webdriver.Remote("http://127.0.0.1:4723", ios_caps)
driver.command_executor.set_timeout(5)
driver.find_elements(by=AppiumBy.IOS_PREDICATE, value="type LIKE '**'")

The find_elements in a slow app (ie. TikTok) will never return.
