What is Git ?

Git stands for Global Information Tracker. It is an open-source tool developed by Linus Torvalds in 2005.
It is a distributed version control system (DVCS) that allows multiple users to work on the same project simultaneously. It helps developers track code changes and maintain a history of modifications. Git is designed to handle everything from small to very large projects efficiently.

There are several features of Git, including:

Distributed workflow

With Git, developers can work on thousands of parallel branches simultaneously. 

Local repository

The Git repository stores your source code and its development history locally.

Collaboration

Git facilitates teamwork and innovation thanks to its powerful collaborative capabilities. 

Speed and efficiency

With Git, you can handle projects of any size quickly and efficiently

Android : How to connect your Android device over Wifi using ADB command for App debugging

How to connect your Android device over Wi-Fi using ADB command

Sometimes it requires to connect your Android device over Wi-Fi using ADB command to get rid of USB cable. Also, if you want to run automation and you want to keep your mobile to a place where is it safe or locked, in such cases you won’t be able use USB cable all the time connected to your pc or laptop. The USB cable sometime limits your movements as well.

These above reasons are my experiences which I faced while working on Android App automation.

Let see how to overcome this issue with available ADB commands. Below are the procedures to connect Android Device over Wi-Fi using ADB Command.

Important: Make sure your PC/Laptop and Mobile phone are connected to same Wi-Fi network.

Pre-requisites:

1.    Make sure you have Android_Home configured into your PC/laptop - (click here to see how to configure)

2.    You must have USB debugging option enabled into your Mobile phone.

3.    Connect your Android Device using USB cable to your pc/laptop

You can watch Youtube video or follow the steps mentioned below

Now run below adb commands. 

4. To check list of devices connected & to ensure your USB debugging option is working fine.  

       -> adb devices

5.    Run adb tcpip 5001
(you can choose any random port)

 6.  Disconnect your device (remove the USB cable).

7.  Go to the Settings -> About phone -> Status to view the IP address of your phone.

8. Run adb connect <IP address of your device>:5001

9. If you run adb devices again, you should see your device.

Now you can execute adb commands or use your IDE for android development/debugging - wireless

10. If you want to see IP address of your phone , run

 ->  adb shell ifconfig | grep inet

Or

To see list of Apps installed i.e packages onto your phone
