appium: Facebook Auth. Android fails on Linux, on macOS - OK.

The problem

Hi, get ready for a cool story. Between 11th and 12th of August I’ve updated node version from 4.2.6 (default for Ubuntu 16.4 now) to 8.3.0. The same day I’ve experienced problems with tests for Android on Linux. Not sure that a newer version of node broke my tests and it’s only a coincidence. But, my tests are successful on Android on macOS and fails on Android on Ubuntu. Does anyone know what’s wrong? Why doesn’t appium find an element via accessibilityId?

Environment

Appium version (or git revision) that exhibits the issue: 1.6.4 (Linux)
Last Appium version that did not exhibit the issue (if applicable): 1.6.4 (macOS)
Desktop OS/version used to run Appium: macOS/Ubuntu 16.4
Node.js version (unless using Appium.app|exe): 8.3.0
Mobile platform/version under test: Android
Real device or emulator/simulator: Emulator
Appium CLI or Appium.app|exe: CLI

Successful macOS tests: face

Failed Linux tests: https://youtu.be/CRJdPvI36xA?t=1m03s

P.S. I saw issues about accessibilityId on WebViews that does not work, but it’s working on macOS.

@jlipps problem solved. There is a bug on Android emulator 26.1.4 with --no-window.

@mykola-mokhnach and the main problem on the CI server. When appium started Facebook authorization test, emulator goes through three states:

Open login page
Click on Facebook button and loading Facebook WebView
Strange crash of the application

I want to show you the full Appium Log And the adb logcat log
