Description
Returns the current location of the mobile device and allows specifying a mock location. See Geolocation Testing.
 |
You can access this property on Android only if the Android Agent service is installed and running on the device. |
Declaration
AndroidDeviceObj.GPS
| Read-Only Property | An AndroidGPS object |
| AndroidDeviceObj | An expression, variable or parameter that specifies a reference to an AndroidDevice object | |||
Applies To
The property is applied to the following object:
Property Value
The AndroidGPS object that returns the current location of the mobile device and allows specifying a mock location.
Example
The code below retrieves location data from the Android device's GPS sensor, posts them to the test log and shows the location in Google Maps:
JavaScript, JScript
function PostGPSLocation()
{
Mobile.SetCurrent("Nexus 7");
// Enable GPS
Mobile.Device().GPS.GPSEnabled = true;
// Obtain location data
var Longt = Mobile.Device().GPS.Location.Longitude;
var Lat = Mobile.Device().GPS.Location.Latitude;
// Output the location data
Log.Message("The device location is:");
Log.Message("Longitude: " + aqConvert.VarToStr(Longt));
Log.Message("Latitude: " + aqConvert.VarToStr(Lat));
Log.Message("Altitude: " + aqConvert.VarToStr(Mobile.Device().GPS.Location.Altitude));
Log.Message("Accuracy: " + aqConvert.VarToStr(Mobile.Device().GPS.Location.Accuracy));
// Open Google Maps in the browser and pass the coordinates as URL parameters
Browsers.Item(Browsers.btIExplorer).Run("http://maps.google.com/maps?q=loc:" + aqConvert.VarToStr(Lat) + "," + aqConvert.VarToStr(Longt));
}
