Hi there trying to get a simple click to work but running into warious errors. my code is as follows.

import static org.junit.Assert.*;

import java.io.File;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;

import org.junit.Test;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedConditions;

import io.appium.java_client.android.AndroidDriver;
import io.appium.java_client.remote.MobileCapabilityType;

public class desiredcapa {

@Test
public void test() throws MalformedURLException {

DesiredCapabilities cap=new DesiredCapabilities();
	File appDir = new File("C:/testing apks");
	
	File app = new File(appDir, "checkers_android_20150921_v2.2.35.apk");

cap.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_NAME , "Android");
cap.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.DEVICE_NAME, "Gravy train(GT-I9190)");
cap.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.PLATFORM_VERSION, "4.2.2");

cap.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.NEW_COMMAND_TIMEOUT, "100");
cap.setCapability(MobileCapabilityType.APP, app.getAbsolutePath());
AndroidDriver driver=new AndroidDriver(new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723/wd/hub"),cap);

   
//driver.findElementsByAndroidUIAutomator("new UiSelector().text('Browse')").click();
//driver.findElementsByXPath('//text[@value="Sign In"]').click();
//driver.findElement(By.xpath("//text[@id='Browse']")).click();
WebElement browse = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//android.widget.Button[@id='Browse'"));
browse.click();


}

}

This is the appium logs. DO i have to input APP package and APP activity?

Looks like appium could not find the above element. Does this show up in arc or the inspector?

Ahren_Adams 2015-10-08 07:21:34 UTC #3

HI there

In my UI Automator viewer the details are as follows. Not all the Node Details are filled in. I tried using the findbytext but dont have that option in webdriver or androiddriver. How can i with limited details impliment this?

shermaneric 2015-10-09 03:01:03 UTC #4

Ah looks like a syntax error (missing bracket) You have this:
WebElement browse = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//android.widget.Button[@id='Browse'"));
browse.click();

It should be this:

WebElement browse = driver.findElement(By.xpath("//android.widget.Button[@id='Browse']"));
browse.click();

good luck!

HI thanks for the help changed my code a bit. working now. inputing a wait exception also helped.

Mahadev 2018-09-28 07:49:58 UTC #6

I am having a issue while running automation script
I am getting org.openqa.selenium.InvalidSelectorException: javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: error

Sample code:

 //driver.findElementByAccessibilityId("RootTopLeftMenuButton");
 //driver.findElement(By.xpath("//android.view.ViewGroup[@accessibility id=RootTopLeftMenuButton]")).click();
//driver.findElement(By.xpath("//android.view.ViewGroup[@content-desc=\'RootTopLeftMenuButton\']")).click();
 driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@accessibility id=\'RootTopLeftMenuButton\']")).click();
 // driver.findElement(By.id("RootTopLeftMenuButton")).click();
