environmentType for iOS has wrong flags

[wkeese]

Using the environment of:

{ browserName: "iphone", platform: "OS X 10.10", version: "9.0", deviceName: "iPad Retina"}

against iOS on SauceLabs, I get weird environmentType settings, specifically that:

1. touchEnabled is false
2. mouseEnabled is true

It would help to know if you are trying to test the iOS emulator, or against appium? Looking at https://docs.saucelabs.com/tutorials/appium/#setting-desired-capabilities-for-mobile-tests , it sounds like the settings provided are triggering the desktop capabilities instead of mobile, but it would help to make sure we understand what you're trying to test with this environment to see if this is a bug or just a mismatch in the config.

I don't really understand your question. I'm testing if my software runs correctly on iphones and ipads.

Your configuration specified a platform of OS X 10.10, a browserName of iPhone, and a deviceName of an iPad Retina. That didn't seem consistent to me with the parameters that SauceLabs would expect... I think the OS X 10.10 in particular is triggering the desktop events.

OK, what configuration should I use? (I agree that specifying an environment for iOS is confusing, and I'd prefer if I could just say something like {platformName: "iOS"}, but I don't think that works.)

Note that the following configuration also has the same failure:

{ browserName: "iphone", version: "9.0", deviceName: "iPad Retina"}
