First char in a string dupplicates

Good day!

I’m having troubles with appium in our native iOS Application
Issue #1
When using driver.setValue(“test”) or driver.sendKeys(“test”). It became “ttest”.
Update:
Tried to look in Appium Server Logs/Console. The value that being sent are “test”. But in the simulator it repeats the first Char of the string which is “t” in “test”. What’s the workaround for this?

Issue #2
I’m getting errors on clearing a field using driver.clear()

Thank you.

I never tried… not even sure if XCUITest support this, but you can try playing around with:

IOSMobileCapabilityType.INTER_KEY_DELAY 
IOSMobileCapabilityType.SEND_KEY_STRATEGY
IOSMobileCapabilityType.MAX_TYPING_FREQUENCY

Good luck

Thank you. How am I going to use those? Sorry. I’m literally new in automation.

Those are capabilities:

DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
capabilities.setCapability(IOSMobileCapabilityType.INTER_KEY_DELAY,"100");
...

You can see https://appium.io/slate/en/master/?java#ios-only for more details and values that can be used.

Again, I never used those and I’m not sure if those can be applied to XCUITest driver
