Answer 1

You can use this method to click menu item. First click menu button using this code

openActionBarOverflowOrOptionsMenu(getInstrumentation().getTargetContext());

Then perform click menu item based on text.Replace your menu item name with "MenuItemName"

onView(withText("MenuItemName")).perform(click());
