Fingerprint automation using appium

Some important points

  1. FaceId is currently not supported as of Jan 2020 in Android emulators as well as real phones
  2. Fingerprint simulation is supported in only Emulators and not in Real android phones
  3. You need to register the fingerprint in the emulator before doing simulation
  4. Then You can send matching and Non matching fingerprint authentication
  5. This is generally used in Biometrics applications

Below code demonstrates how you can simulate the fingerprint in Android Emulator.
