TvOS (Apple TV 4K)

During an Appium test you can use the buttons actions to simulate remote control navigation on the Apple TV.

driver.execute_script('mobile: pressButton', { name: 'down' })
driver.execute_script('mobile: pressButton', { name: 'select' })

await driver.execute('mobile: pressButton', { name: 'down' });
await driver.execute('mobile: pressButton', { name: 'select' });

driver.execute_script('mobile: pressButton', {'name': 'down'})
driver.execute_script('mobile: pressButton', {'name': 'select'})

driver.executeScript("mobile: pressButton", Map.of("name", "down"));
driver.executeScript("mobile: pressButton", Map.of("name", "select"));

driver.ExecuteScript("mobile: pressButton", new Dictionary<string, string> { { "name", "down" } });
driver.ExecuteScript("mobile: pressButton", new Dictionary<string, string> { { "name", "select" } });
