anyone has some idea？

I got the same issue. Didn't find any solution yet

[abhishekgargx]

i have faced similar issue with Android studio, and even speak with maintainer (Srinivasan) of this library. and found out they do not use android studio or intelli j to test or build this library. so to use this library i made a seperate branch which contains test cases only and sync the gradle only as build is always failed, i even tired excluding some of internal dependencies of this libraries to resolve the conflict but some of selinium and other library are tightly coupled and i guess are base of this library. hence to

fix this issue only sync gradle , --> then start appium server --> then run script directly on terminal

. it worked. also currently using 7.2.0 version as there are some issues are live on 7.3.0 .

@Abhishekgarg727 when you say run script directly on terminal, you mean building the APK and the executing on the device? because it doesn't work either

@pxr89 Is the issue resolved?

[HaxThePlanet]

This fixed "Duplicate class org.openqa.selenium.SearchContext" for me:

TLDR: open java-client jar, remove those classes.
