Need a way to remove the app from recent applist,

 

Hi,

 

 

I have scenario where I need to remove the tested App from recent App list in Android.

 

Issue is I am not able to click on recent App button using TC.

 

Is there any way where we can acomplish this using TC script.

 

Thanks

    Hi Suvidh,

     

    I think you need to create a script that will remove your application by using special methods, like adb remove or shell execute.

    Please let me know if this suggestion works for you.

      Hi,

       

      You can use the function as below.

       

      //Example for package: com.tmobile.pr.com

       

       

      function uninstall_App_with_ADB(device,package)
      {
      var status = true;
      var msg = "";
      if(Mobile["Device"](device)["Exists"])
      {
      Mobile["Device"](device)["ShellExecute"]("adb shell pm uninstall "+package)

      }
      else
      {
      status = false;
      msg = Log["Error"]("uninstallAppwithADB: "+"Failed!"+" The device is not existed!")

      }

      }

       

      Download and install the Android System Info and use it to check your app package.
