Question

How to get page source for mobile NATIVE (without webviews) app using selenium preferably in javascript?

Answer 1

Depends on your chosen javascript client.

For example, with wd, you would use wd.source(); as can be found from the wd api page: https://github.com/admc/wd/blob/master/doc/api.md

For webdriver-io, the command seems to be client.source();, as found from http://webdriver.io/api/protocol/source.html

If you want to use the selenium-webdriver, it seems that the command would be driver.getPageSource(); as per http://seleniumhq.github.io/selenium/docs/api/javascript/module/selenium-webdriver/index_exports_WebDriver.html#getPageSource
