Problem with minitouch on device without touchscreen

[d0c3ntOS]

I need use android device without screen - tests some device. In my case Odrino C2. I think the same problem will by with Raspberry Pi, Banana Pi, Orange Pi, LattePanda etc.

When I start OpenSTF, minitouch doesn't work. Dosen't see any touchscreen and stops working.

Following I have the STF log.

I plant use more then 100 devices and I can't use 100 touchscreens. I think about virtual touchscreen, but I don't have any idea how to do it. Any idea ?

[sorccu]

Well I'd say that's beyond our use case. We can't support everything. However, openstf/minitouch#15 might work once merged.

Didn't help :(

Any ideas ? What can I do more ?

[sorccu]

I don't think there's anything I can do about that right now, too busy. However, please post your feedback on that minicap issue where it is more appropriate.

[ondrj]

@d0c3ntOS Hello, have you found any solution? I fell into similar issue...

[sudosimi]

I have a similar problem on ODROID C2 when trying to connect to it. I can get Minicap to stream on one device, but not OpenSTF. Is there a way to disable the minitouch feature?

[ondrj]

I have already tried to comment code here '

stf/lib/units/device/index.js

Line 31 in badb3ed

.dependency(require('./plugins/touch'))

', but unfortunately it did not help..

[xingkong130]

@ d0c3ntOS

I also encountered the same problem with you.
My device does not have a touch screen.
error is Unable to find a suitable touch device。
I have already solved。
Find out the device's initialization code and modify it.

[sudosimi]

@xingkong130 , what part of the device initialization code did you modify, and on what device, and android version?

[gwillden]

@xingkong130 Did you have a chance to answer @simion-iulian? I too would like to know what changes you made to the device's initialization code to make stf work with a non-touchscreen device.
