Appium - stack level too deep (SystemStackError)

stack level too deep (SystemStackError)

      ./features/step_definitions/Appium/appiumtest.rb:6:in 

      appium/features/regression/appiumtest.feature:5:in 

The error is caused because the system tries to find the element, but the it is not connected with the emulator and the appium server.

To solve that add a hooks.rb file under the support directory to start and end the driver when the test runs:

hooks.rb:

Before do
  $driver.start_driver 
end

After do
  $driver.driver_quit 
end
