Hi Bhaskar,

I have used JavaScriptExecutor with a hybrid app as below:

js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
js.executeScript("window.scrollTo(0,0)");

driver is a WebDriver instance.

Thanks,
Sujata

Hi @sujata_kalluri,
Thanks for your reply.!!!

apparently, swipe and scroll these two are only working with JavascriptExecutor , still any actions could be done with that?

Thanks,
Bhaskar.

What ever you use for WebDriver can use for Appium too, I use JavaScriptExecuter many times in my framework and working awesome

JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
js.executeScript("$('#scroller').val('" + data + "')");

((JavascriptExecutor) driver)
.executeScript("SomText.Config.isTestOrder=true;");

Hi,

What other actions are you looking for?
So far I have used only scroll.

Thanks,

JSExecuter is use to run Javascript,
eg :
jsExecuter = (JavaScriptExecutor)driver;
jsExecuter.ExecuteScript(“any JavaScript”)
For JavaScript, text that we will use as java script, is fully a java script code . If we need a function output from that java script, we have to use ” return” before the script. For example, if we want title
jsExecuter.ExecuteScript(“return document.title”);

Sample JSexecuter ...

ExpectedCondition expectation = new ExpectedCondition() {
public Boolean apply(WebDriver driver) {
return ((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript(
"return document.readyState").equals("complete");
}

((JavascriptExecutor) driver)
.executeScript("function pageloadingtime()" + "{"
+ "return 'Page has completely loaded'" + "}
+ "return (window.onload=pageloadingtime());");

((JavascriptExecutor) driver)
.executeScript("window.AutomationTesting = true;");

Hello ASYB
What about using java script executor for changing attribute value like “visible” to be with true rather than false?!
I have tried this piece line of code:
JavascriptExecutor js = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
//WebElement redFamily = driver.findElementByXPath("//XCUIElementTypeStaticText[@name=‘Red+ / FAMILIE’]");
//js.executeScript(“arguments[0].setAttribute(‘visible’ = ‘true’)”,redFamily);

But return an error Appium not implement this method :S ??
