I have to produce a method that works on all applications and all of them have “android.widget.FrameLayout” in common or i guess it can be done by dimension. I really dont know so can you suggest a method that can work on all applications and not only this? Thank you for your reply 
man first of all
1- you should change “” because you take it as not programming chars
2- you should call your driver i don’t know what you named it
3- you should import all needed jars
Hi Sarah
Its really appreciated that you are struggling but the code which you share above is working with coordinates but the which i posted is working with text coordinates will change with the screen dimmision but the UIselector code which i share with you working with text so any type of application like native hybrid webapp can be handled with this code
Your code is pasted below in this i cannot understand what you required
public static void scrollTo(String direction, int times) throws InterruptedException {
Thread.sleep(1000);
if (direction.equals(“down”)) {
Dimension dim = driver.manage().window().getSize();
int width = dim.getWidth() / 2;
for (int i = 0; i < times; i++) {
int startY = (int) (dim.getHeight() * 0.7);
int endY = (int) (dim.getHeight() * 0.5);
new TouchAction(driver).press(point(width, startY)).waitAction(waitOptions(Duration.ofSeconds(1)))
.moveTo(point(width, endY)).release().perform();
so please use my code
which is easy i already comment on each line which you have mentioned as error
Everytime i execute your code, its giving me some errors so I have to change it to for the errors to be resolved
public static void scrollTo(String direction, int times) throws InterruptedException {
Thread.sleep(1000);
Object down = null;
if (direction.equals(down)) {
org.openqa.selenium.Dimension dim = driver.manage().window().getSize();
int width = dim.getWidth() / 2;
for (int i = 0; i < times; i++) {
int startY = (int) (dim.getHeight() * 0.7);
int endY = (int) (dim.getHeight() * 0.5);
new TouchAction(driver).press(point(width, startY)).waitAction(waitOptions(Duration.ofSeconds(1)))
.moveTo(point(width, endY)).release().perform();{
}
}
}
}
private static WaitOptions waitOptions(Duration ofSeconds) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return null;
}
private static PointOption point(int width, int startY) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return null;
}
and im calling it by scrollTo(“down”, 1);
But its still not working. Can you please help me with this?
i’m getting these errors do you know how to solve them?
[AndroidBootstrap] [BOOTSTRAP LOG] [debug] Returning result: {“status”:13,“value”:“Drag did not complete successfully”}
[AndroidBootstrap] Received command result from bootstrap
[MJSONWP] Matched JSONWP error code 13 to UnknownError
I know there has been many responses, here is what I use,
public boolean scrollToElement (By by) throws Exception {
boolean isFoundTheElement = appiumServer.getDriver().findElements(by).size() > 0;
while (isFoundTheElement == false) {
swipeVertical(0.8, 0.1, 0.5, 2000);
isFoundTheElement = appiumServer.getDriver().findElements(by).size() > 0;
}
return isFoundTheElement;
}
public void swipeVertical (
double startPercentage, double finalPercentage, double anchorPercentage, int duration)
throws Exception {
Dimension size = appiumServer.getDriver().manage().window().getSize();
int anchor = (int) (size.width * anchorPercentage);
int startPoint = (int) (size.height * startPercentage);
int endPoint = (int) (size.height * finalPercentage);
getTouchAction().press(PointOption.point(anchor, startPoint))
.waitAction(WaitOptions.waitOptions(Duration.ofMillis(duration)))
.moveTo(PointOption.point(anchor, endPoint)).release().perform();
}
public TouchAction getTouchAction () {
return new TouchAction(appiumServer.getDriver());
}I was continously getting an error on "getDrive. So, i have changed the code a bit. But can you tell me how to call it in the main method?
public static boolean scrollToElement (By by) throws Exception {
boolean isFoundTheElement = driver.findElements(by).size() > 0;
while (isFoundTheElement == false) {
swipeVertical(0.8, 0.1, 0.5, 2000);
isFoundTheElement = driver.findElements(by).size() > 0;
}
return isFoundTheElement;
}
public static void swipeVertical (
double startPercentage, double finalPercentage, double anchorPercentage, int duration)
throws Exception {
org.openqa.selenium.Dimension size = driver.manage().window().getSize();
int anchor = (int) (size.width * anchorPercentage);
int startPoint = (int) (size.height * startPercentage);
int endPoint = (int) (size.height * finalPercentage);
getTouchAction().press(PointOption.point(anchor, startPoint))
.waitAction(WaitOptions.waitOptions(Duration.ofMillis(duration)))
.moveTo(PointOption.point(anchor, endPoint)).release().perform();
}
public static TouchAction getTouchAction () {
return new TouchAction(driver);
}It is just some methods. Add it to a class (existing or new class). From any method (main() is just a method, in a class), you instantiate the class, then call the method ()
myClass.scrollToElement (by);
its continuously giving me error on (by) when I call it in the main method saying “by cannot be resolved to a variable”
by is a variable, of type By
https://seleniumhq.github.io/selenium/docs/api/java/org/openqa/selenium/By.html1
This is your locator object.
I have already imported import org.openqa.selenium.By; but still its giving me error
thank you a gazillion times it has worked but i have some other queries also should I also ask them?
