I am pretty new to Appium, using UIAutomator2. Following instructions on the links:

[https://discuss.appium.io/t/click-back-button-on-android-device-in-java/6817/3][1] [https://discuss.appium.io/t/click-back-button-twice-in-android-7-using-appium-uiautomator2/20368][2] [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30801879/how-to-automate-the-android-phone-back-button-using-appium][3]

I have tried all the options offered in these articles:

driver.pressKeyCode(4);

helper.driver.pressKeyCode(187);

driver.back();

driver.navigate().back();

If I add the imports

import io.appium.java_client.android.nativekey.AndroidKey; import io.appium.java_client.android.nativekey.KeyEvent; and I try driver.pressKeyCode(AndroidKeyCode.BACK);

Eclipse tells me that the method is undefined...

But none of them have worked. Is there anything I need to import or any additional classes I need to create? My driver only has methods for testing, such as close(), equals(), execute(), findElement()... but nothing like back(), or pressKeyCode() or navigate()(this one, probably, because it is not webView)... So, when I try to just type any of those methods, Eclipse either suggests to add a cast, or to create a class...

Please, Can anyone give me some more details on how to do it?

The driver should be an Appium driver. And try to run on real device than emulators.

driver = new AppiumDriver<>(url, desiredCapabilities);
