.click() not working on button for Android?

Garima_Mody · Jul '16

I am using Appium 1.5.3 on ubuntu. The .click() and tap() isn't working for button. My code is:

webDriver.findElement(By.id("btn_login"));
TouchAction Action = new TouchAction((MobileDriver) webDriver);
Action.tap(webDriver.findElement(By.id("btn_login")));

what is the output displaying over appium server after this action ?

I said about the uiauotomatorviewer output not the console output

Garima_Mody · Jul '16

sorry but where do we get output in uiautomatorviewer?

yadsandy · Jul '16

I mean the screenshot of inspecting the element using uiautomatorviewer (You can open uiautomatorviewer directly type it over cmd or terminal)

Here you mentioned different id for button and the id displaying in uiautomatorviewer is different . please recheck it and try again

Garima_Mody · Jul '16

i am using btn_login only.

Seems like similar issue with click on android i posted here - https://discuss.appium.io/t/cannot-click-on-a-web-element-in-chrome-possible-when-selendroid-is-used/2144/6

Suman_Bala · Aug '16

@Garima_Mody you can find element by ID or xpath in this case. See below - Use any of them

driver.findElement(By.id("btn_login")).click();
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//android.widget.Button[@text='Login']")).click();

fionazj · Aug '16

Hi
You may try this: add scroll to the location of element before click, this worked for me when click the button in Chrome of android mobile

public void clickElement(WebElement el) {
	try {
		if(Base.platformName.equalsIgnoreCase(ConstantName.ANDROID))
	((JavascriptExecutor) Base.base.getDriver()).executeScript("window.scrollTo(0," +el.getLocation().x+ ")");
		TouchActions ta = new TouchActions(Base.base.getDriver());
		ta.singleTap(el).perform();
	} catch (WebDriverException ex) {
		throw ex;
	}
}

What is correct solution for this?

tjmaher1 · Jun '17

Use Appium Desktop to investigate the mobile element.

Maybe the Mobile element isn't set to be clickable or tappable?

Sanjeewahsp · Sep '17

I have same issue. I have opened it on appium desktop and mobile element isn’t set to be clickable or tappable.
what is the solution of this issue?

Hi,

driver.executeScript(“mobile: performEditorAction”, ImmutableMap.of(“action”, “done”));

github.com2

appium/appium/blob/master/docs/en/writing-running-appium/android/android-ime.md

## How To Emulate IME Actions Generation

Very often Android developers use [onEditorAction](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView.OnEditorActionListener.html#onEditorAction(android.widget.TextView,%20int,%20android.view.KeyEvent)) callback with `actionId` argument to implement actions handling, for example, when `Search` or `Done` button is pressed on the on-screen keyboard. Appium since version 1.9.2 allows to automate the generation of such actions by providing the special `mobile:` command.


### mobile: performEditorAction

Executes the given editor action on the _currently focused_ element.

#### Supported arguments

 * _action_: The name or an integer code of the editor action to be executed. The following action names are supported: `normal, unspecified, none, go, search, send, next, done, previous`. Read https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/inputmethod/EditorInfo for more details on this topic.

#### Usage examples

```java
// Java
driver.executeScript("mobile: performEditorAction", ImmutableMap.of("action", "Go"));
```
