i am launching the genymoton emulator from rubymine for my calabash-android automation

system("player --vm-name #{emulatorId}")

What is notice is once the rubymine executes the above, it launches the emulator but then just hangs in there doing nothing.

Can someone help to figure out how do i move onto the next statement for execution?

Also, this issue occurs only for Genymotion emulator. If i use AVD emulator, then execution moves onto next statement after launching the emulator

Genymotion doesn't run in the background so probably your system command hangs until you close Genymotion.

You can try to put an & sign after your command to run it in the background:

system("player --vm-name #{emulatorId} &")
