Appium element Positioning

Location by ID

The ID on Android is Resource-id

Driver.findelementbyid ("Com.tencent.mm:id/do")

Or

webelement element = Driver.findelement (By.id ("com.tencent.mm:id/do"));

Navigate by name

General text is name

Webelement el = driver.findelement (By.name ("nickname"));

Positioning via classname

ClassName is the class information inside the Uiautomator

Webelement el = driver.findelement (By.classname ("Android.widget.TextView"));

Positioning via XPath

XPath locates elements in Appium, performs slowly, is less efficient, and is seldom used

Webelement el = driver.findelement (By.xpath ("//android.widget.button[@index = ' 1 ')");

Positioning via Accessibilityid

The CONTENT-DESC information in Uiautomator is the anchor element

Webelement el = Driver.findelementbyaccessibilityid ("Sharebutton");

Locating elements by Androiduiautomator

Androiduiautomator is a powerful element positioning method, it is through the Android Uiautomator class library to find elements,

Findelement (By.androiduiautomator (String uiauto));

You can select Id,classname,name,description as the incoming string

Webelement el = Driver.findelementbyandroiduiautomator ("New Uiselector (). Description (\" sharebutton\ ")");

Method of the Text property, text information in Uiautomator

Driver.find_element_by_android_uiautomator (' New Uiselector (). Text ("Custom View"). Click () #text

Driver.find_element_by_android_uiautomator (' New Uiselector (). Textcontains ("View"). Click () #textContains

Driver.find_element_by_android_uiautomator (' New Uiselector (). Textstartswith ("Custom") '). Click () #textStartsWith

No EndsWith method

Driver.find_element_by_android_uiautomator (' New Uiselector (). Textmatches ("^custom.*"). Click () #textMatches

The use of regular expressions must match exactly, such as using "^custom" above is incorrect

Methods for classname Properties

#className

#classNameMatches

Methods for ResourceID Properties

#resourceId

#resourceIdMatches
Driver.find_element_by_android_uiautomator (' New Uiselector (). Resourceidmatches (". *id/text1$")

Positioning via ContentDescription

Methods for other properties of the element

Through Pseudo-XPath methods

by Uiselector.fromparent or Uiobject.getfromparent method

Quickly find sibling information for a parent element of a known element

Their functions are the same.

Getfromparent method

1. Save = new UiObject (new uiselector (). Text ("Save");
2. Assertequals (Save.gettext (), "Save");
3. Delete = Save.getfromparent (new uiselector (). Text ("delete"));
4. Assertequals (Delete.gettext (), "delete");

Promparent method

1. Delete = new UiObject (new uiselector (). Text ("Save"). Fromparent (new uiselector (). Text (" Delete ")));
2. Assertequals (Delete.gettext (), "delete");

by Uiselector.childselector or Uiobject.getchild method

Quickly find child elements in a known element

Getchild method

1. UiObject Parentview = new UiObject (new uiselector (). ClassName ("Android.view.View"));
2. Save = Parentview.getchild (new uiselector (). Text ("save"));
3. Assertequals (Save.gettext (), "Save");

Childselector method

1. Save = new UiObject (new uiselector (). ClassName ("Android.view.View"). Childselector (new Uiselector (). Text ("Save"));
2. Assertequals (Save.gettext (), "Save");
