How to get invisible page source in appium?

Question

When i swipe to next page and get page_source , I can't get last page_source content

That is I only can get current visible page_source

But I want to scrape lots of page, get only visible page source is low efficient

Any way to get invisible outside page_source in appium? I use python.

Thanks

Need to understand what page would you like to catch - native or webview? Try to get a page source for debugging - https://appium.io/docs/en/commands/session/source/ .

Maybe you need to switch a context to get a page source?

Here how I implemented context switching.

In some Page Object files I keep Android (or iOS) contexts.

 ANDROID_CONTEXTS = {
     'webview': 'WEBVIEW_ru.myapp',
     'native': 'NATIVE_APP'
 }

In some tests I switch context from Native to Webview.

 @allure.link(url='https://jira.project.tech/browse/TEST-1', name='TEST-1 - Fill payment form')
 @allure.title('Fill payment form')
 def test_card_standard_1_month(appdriver):

     Paywall(appdriver).press_one_month_button()
     PaymentsPage(appdriver).select_card_payment()
     PaymentsPage(appdriver).press_payment_button()


     appdriver.switch_to.context(ANDROID_CONTEXTS['webview'])
     Payform(appdriver).fill_and_submit_payoform()

     appdriver.switch_to.context(ANDROID_CONTEXTS['native'])

     assert SuccessPayment(appdriver).get_successful_payment_title_text() == 'Your subscription is successful!'

You can check all available contexts in your app. More info here -> http://appium.io/docs/en/commands/context/set-context/
