No.7 appium-Analog Keyboard

Recently, if you test a music software or a video-like software, what do you do with the volume increase or fast-forward operation? Use the "Swipe" action, drag the progress bar or the volume bar 1.1-point slip? Then went to search, found that appium can send key code, simulate the operation of physical keys. Ho Ho ~ Try it ~

All right, serving!

1.keyevent(self, keycode, Metastate=none)

Sends a keycode to the device. Android only. Possible Keycodes can be
Found in http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/KeyEvent.html.

: Args:
-Keycode-the KeyCode to is sent to the device
-Metastate-meta information about the KeyCode being sent

The approximate meaning of this API is: send a key to the device

After the key table sticky, now I try "keycode_menu":"Menu key":

Execute code:

Driver.keyevent (82)

Driver.keyevent (' 82 ')

The effect is the same

Results :

No Problem ~ "Menu key", click Finish, is this effect.

Try another type of notation:

Driver.keyevent (Keycode_menu)

result : Nameerror:name ' keycode_menu ' was not defined, error, said no definition

2.press_keycode (self, keycode, Metastate=none)

Sends a keycode to the device. Android only. Possible Keycodes can be

-Keycode-the KeyCode to is sent to the device
-Metastate-meta information about the keycode being sent

Sad to find Press_keycode and keyevent usage is the same, do not repeat the "" "also did not find, he two what difference

3.long_press_keycode (Self, keycode, Metastate=none)

Sends a long press of keycode to the device. Android only. Possible Keycodes can be
Found in http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/KeyEvent.html.

: Args:
-Keycode-the KeyCode to is sent to the device

The approximate meaning of this API is: send a key to the device, long press

Driver.long_press_keycode (25)
This API doesn't see what it's actually used for.

That, the key code table too long "own Baidu Bar ╮(╯▽╰)╭

The dishes are up!!
